Question

explain carbon 12 and carbon 14 both show similar chemical properties
pls ans in short and easy wordings
if ur and will help me nd it will be correct then I will mark u as brainist ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Carbon-12 and carbon-14 are isotopes of carbon. They have the same atomic number (6) and hence the same electronic configuration. Chemical properties are determined by the electronic configuration of an atom. So, carbon-12 and carbon-14 show similar chemical properties.

Isotopes of an element share the same number of protons but have different numbers of neutrons. Let's use carbon as an example. There are three isotopes of carbon found in nature – carbon-12, carbon-13, and carbon-14. ... So different isotopes of the same element are identical, chemically speaking.

Answer 2

Explanation:

• They have the same atomic number (6) and hence the same electronic configuration.
• Chemical properties are determined by the electronic configuration of an atom.
• So, carbon-12 and carbon-14 show similar chemical properties.
