13C and 14C are isotopes of 12C, which has 6 electrons, 6 protons, and 6 neutrons. What is the arrangement of subatomic particles in 14C? 6 electrons, 7 protons, and 6 neutrons 6 electrons, 7 protons, and 8 neutrons 6 electrons, 6 protons, and 8 neutrons

Sagot :

6 electrons, 6 protons, and 8 neutrons. This is because in isotopes of the same element, proton and electron number are the same, it is only the number of neutrons that changes.

Answer;

6 electrons, 6 protons, and 8 neutrons


Explanation;

Isotopes are atoms of the same elements with the same atomic number but different mass numbers.

They differ in the number of neutrons.

In this case 13C, 12C and 14 C are three isotopes of carbon; such that 12C has 6 neutrons and 13C has 7 neutrons and 14C has 8 electronsin their nucleus. They have the same number or electrons and protons.
