How are isotopes formed?
Isotopes are formed either naturally through radioactive decay of elements or artificially through element irradiation by particles as neutrons, protons, electrons, or alpha p…articles in accelerators or nuclear reactors through nuclear fission or nuclear fusion reactions in nuclear reactors. supernovasparticle acceleratorsnuclear reactorsnuclear explosionsradioactive decay (MORE)

What is isotope mean?
Isotope means an element with a different number of neutrons, however the number of protons and electrons of the atom remains the same.

Can isotopes be separated by chemical methods?
Since isotopes are nearly chemically identical, the use of chemical processes to separate isotopes is impractical, but it is used to separate deuterium from normal hydrogen. T…he extreme mass differences of deuterium and hydrogen (being twice its mass), allows for a more noticeable chemical difference: when chemical equilibrium is established with water (H2O or HDO, with one deuterium replacing the hydrogen) with pure light hydrogen gas, there is 3 to 4 times more deuterium in the liquid compound than in the gas. Thus, this difference can be used to separate the heavier deuterium from light hydrogen. But the use of chemical methods would only work if the mass of the isotopes are immensely different, which only occurs with lighter elements. To separate other isotopes, the physical properties of the compounds are used since they directly relate with the slight difference in masses. The most common example of separation by physical properties is the separation by effusion, which is commonly used to separate uranium-235 (used in weapons and power generation) and uranium-238. These mass differences result in a different effusion rate as predicted by the Kinetic Molecular Theory, thus the lighter U-235 effuses faster than U-238, and the process being repeated many times nearly pure U-235 results.

Why can't you separate uranium isotopes through chemical means?
The mass differences between uranium isotopes is extremely low. But the separation is so still possible at laboratory scale but not practical: ion exchange separation, dist…illation. (MORE)

Is NH3 an isotope?
No. NH3 is a compound. An isotope is a variant of an element with a different number of neutrons. For example Carbon-12 and Carbon-14 are isotopes.

What is the answer to 20c plus 5 equals 5c plus 65?
20c + 5 = 5c + 65 Divide through by 5: 4c + 1 = c + 13 Subtract c from both sides: 3c + 1 = 13 Subtract 1 from both sides: 3c = 12 Divide both sides by 3: c = 4

What are isotopes and explain the isotopes of hydrogen?
All atoms of a specific element have the same number of protons in their nucleus, but the number of neutrons in the nucleus may vary these are isotopes of that element. … Hydrogen has several possible isotopes, only the first three of these are commonly referred to: hydrogen or protium or hydrogen-1, 1 proton 0 neutrons, stable deuterium or hydrogen-2, 1 proton 1 neutron, stable tritium or hydrogen-3, 1 proton 2 neutrons, radioactive halflife 12.26 years hydrogen-4, 1 proton 3 neutrons, radioactive halflife about 139 yoctoseconds hydrogen-5, 1 proton 4 neutrons, radioactive halflife about 910 yoctoseconds hydrogen-6, 1 proton 5 neutrons, radioactive halflife 290 yoctoseconds hydrogen-7, 1 proton 6 neutrons, radioactive halflife 23 yoctoseconds etc. (MORE)
