The resulting isotope is uranium 239 with a half life of 23.5 minutes (beta desintegration).
Any substance can be changed to a new one.Answ2. The above is wrong. Lead for example cannot be changed into nitrogen.If some of the nucleus of an atom can have a proton or neutron, added or subtracted, then an isotope can be created, though generally an isotope of the same element.Consider the decay of K40 into Ar40. This is a change of one substance into another.
The 14 protons means it has the atomic number 14, and from the periodic table you can see that it is silicon, Si. The 15 neutrons added to the 14 protons means it has a mass number of 29, and is an isotope of silicon called silicon-29.
Mass number increases as neutron is added
The symbol for all the isotopes of uranium is U. A number is added after U - the atomic mass of a specific isotope; for example U-235, U-240, etc.
When some kinds of antacid tablets are added to water,the resulting fizz gives off oxygen gass.True
An isotope of helium will be formed.
The first isotope is deuterium, H-2, comprising a proton, an added neutron, and an electron.
Hydrogen-2. That is hydrogen isotope 2. It is commonly called deuterium.
The carbon 12 isotope has six neutrons and six protons in the nucleus, hence, 12 nucleons in total.
It would be 6 and 7. Here is why.... The isotope is created when you add a neutron. Protons cannot be added or taken from an atom or it changes the element entirely. Therefore, if you have carbon (6 protons & 6 neutrons) and you add a NEUTRON, you now have the 2nd isotope of carbon. I am positive that you cannot add protons to an atom. The one I am most familiar with is hydrogen. Hydrogen has one proton & ZERO neutrons. If you add one neutron you have deuterium which is the second isotope of hydrogen. If you add two neutrons you have Trittium...... By adding neutrons you have different variations of the SAME ELEMENT! If you added protons to the atom you would have DIFFERENT ELEMENTS! Hope this helps.
A proton and a neutron added together would be Deuterium without an electron.
an isotope that is radioactive

well, since a neutron = 0 charge placed into a neutral which is has no charge, it stays the same.
Nitrogen 15 contains: 7 protons 8 neutrons 7 electrons "15" is added to the name because it is an isotope and contains inequal amounts of protons and neutrons (in this case, an extra neutron).
