A neutron added to a carbon 12?

Adding a neutron to a carbon-12 atom would result in the creation of a carbon-13 atom. This would increase the atomic mass of the carbon atom by one unit while retaining its chemical properties as a carbon element.

What forces in carbon 14 does isotope transform a neutron into a proton?

Nuclear forces are the exact forces in carbon-14 that transforms a neutron into a proton. The actual process includes alpha decay, beta decay, relative dating, and absolute dating.


What is the neutron to proton ratio in a stable form of carbon 12?

It is a 1:1 ratio because in a Carbon-12 atom there are 6 neutrons and 6 protons.


What are the charges of the subatomic particles for carbon?

Neutron is neutral. Proton is positive. Electron is negative.


What is the proton to neutron ratio of carbon 14?

The carbon 14 isotope has 6 protons and 8 neutrons in its nucleus, which gives a ration of 3:4 of protons to neutrons.

What is radiation particle used in bombardment of nitrogen-14?

The radiation particle used in the bombardment of nitrogen-14 is a neutron. When a neutron collides with a nitrogen-14 nucleus, it can create carbon-14 through a process called neutron capture.


How does carbon 12 become carbon 14?

It doesn't. Under natural conditions, carbon 14 generally forms from nitrogen 14. A high energy neutron from space strikes the nitrogen nucleus, causing it to eject a proton, ultimately forming a carbon 14 atom and hydrogen 1 atom. It can also occur via neutron capture by carbon 13. Currently there is an overabundance of carbon 14 in the atmosphere as a result of nuclear testing.
