They all have the same number of Protons-6. They differ in the number of neutrons present.

What do scientist know about Carbon12 Carbon14 atoms?

Scientists know that the isotopes Carbon-12 and Carbon-14 are both forms of carbon, but they differ in the number of neutrons they contain. Carbon-12 is the most common form of carbon and is stable, while Carbon-14 is radioactive and is used in radiocarbon dating to determine the age of organic materials.


Does the carbon14 have more protons neutrons or electrons than carbon12?

Carbon-14 contains more neutrons compared to carbon-12. Carbon-12 has 6 neutrons, while carbon-14 has 8 neutrons. The number of protons and electrons in both carbon isotopes remains the same, at 6 each.


How do you find the atomic weight on the periodic table?

On many Periodic Tables, the small number directly below the chemical symbol is the atomic mass. On mine, there is a small 12.011 under the large C for carbon. While most carbon is 12, there are naturally occurring carbon13 and carbon14, so this is an average mass of all naturally occurring isotopes, with the majority of isotopes being carbon12


How many carbon atoms are present in a mole of carbon12?

6.023 x 1023


What is the mass number of carbon14?

Carbon is a non metallic element. Mass number of it is 12.


What Limitations are there of using carbon14 to date rocks?

The main limitations of using Carbon14 dating to find the age of something that is carbon base are firstly the possibility that carbon may be absorbed by some things making it more difficult to get an absolutely accurate age and secondly, with Carbon14 only having a half life of 5,568 years the maximum theoretical limit for detection is 100,000 years.


Why are atomic masses written as averages?

elements exist in more than one form eg carbon 12 and carbon14


Which has greatest number of neutrons carbon13 and carbon14 or nitrogen14?

C-13 has an atomic number of 6 and an atomic mass of 13, therefore it has 13-6 neutrons = 7. C-14 therefore has 8 neutrons. N-14 has an atomic mass of 14 and an atomic number of 7, so its number of neutrons is 7. 8>7, so Carbon 14 has the largest number of neutrons.


How many years would it take for the mass of a 1.00 g sample of carbon12 to be reduce to 0.125g?

It will take practically forever. Carbon-12 is not radioactive.


What happens to the amount of nitrogen14 as the carbon14 decays?

As carbon-14 decays, it transforms into nitrogen-14 through the process of beta decay. So, the amount of nitrogen-14 increases as carbon-14 decays.


What two things must scientist measure to find the absolute age of a rock?

scientists use carbon14 and potassium argon to find absolute age of rock


What are carbon 12 carbon 13 carbon 14 are examples of?

isotopes of carbon
