Question

2. Draw the isotopes of Chlorine. How do these isotopes differ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:Chlorine (17Cl) has 25 isotopes with mass numbers ranging from 28Cl to 52Cl and 2 isomers (34mCl and 38mCl). There are two stable isotopes, 35Cl (75.77%) and 37Cl (24.23%), giving chlorine a standard atomic weight of 35.45. The longest-lived radioactive isotope is 36Cl, which has a half-life of 301,000 years. All other isotopes have half-lives under 1 hour, many less than one second. The shortest-lived are 29Cl and 30Cl, with half-lives less than 10 picoseconds and 30 nanoseconds, respectively—the half-life of 28Cl is unknown.
