isotopes of carbon
No. The only mass numbers of carbon isotopes that occur naturally are 12 and 13, and the number of atoms with mass number 12 is much greater than the number of atoms with mass number 13 in any carbon from natural sources. Carbon-14 exists at all only in carbon including man-made isotopes.
Geologists measure the amount of carbon-14 present, the ratio of parent isotopes to daughter isotopes in radioactive decay, and the layers of rock surrounding the fossil to determine the age of an organism's remains.
Isotopes of uncharged elements have the same number of protons (which determines the element), but different numbers of neutrons. For example, carbon-12 and carbon-14 are isotopes of carbon with different numbers of neutrons but the same number of protons.
Actually, carbon-14 and nitrogen-14 are isotopes. They have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons, which results in different atomic masses. Carbon-14 has 6 protons and 8 neutrons, while nitrogen-14 has 7 protons and 7 neutrons.
Isotopes and isobars are very different. Isotopes are different atoms of the same element that have varying atomic masses (such as U-237 and U-235; i.e. they differ only in the number of neutrons contained within the nucleus), while isobars are a computed line through a variable region that all have the same value (think about the lines on a meteorological map). The specific line around a low pressure system where the pressure at every point on the line is the same atmospheric pressure is an isobar. Isobars are nuclei of different elements having the same mass number but different atomic number.
Isotopes.
Hydrogen has three isotopes: protium (1H), deuterium (2H), and tritium (3H). Carbon has two stable isotopes: carbon-12 (12C) and carbon-13 (13C), along with a radioactive isotope, carbon-14 (14C). Oxygen has three isotopes: oxygen-16 (16O), oxygen-17 (17O), and oxygen-18 (18O).
Hydrogen has three isotopes one proton and no nutron one proton and one nutron one proton and two nutrons
The stable carbon isotopes are carbon-12 & carbon-13. There are several other unstable isotopes.
Carbon is available in three isotopes, C12, C13 and C14. C12 is the most common.
There are 15 of known isotopes of carbons. However, only two of them are stable. They are carbon-12 (carbon "itself") and carbon-13. Carbon-14 is a radiactive isotope of carbon. It is used in determining the age of fossils, geologic, or archaeological specimens.
Coal, charcoal, and diamond are not isotopes of carbon; they are forms of carbon but are not considered isotopes. Fluorine is a different element and not related to carbon. Isotopes of carbon include carbon-12, carbon-13, and carbon-14.
Hydrogen has three isotopes: protium (1 proton), deuterium (1 proton and 1 neutron), and tritium (1 proton and 2 neutrons). Carbon has two stable isotopes: carbon-12 (6 protons and 6 neutrons) and carbon-13 (6 protons and 7 neutrons), along with a radioactive isotope carbon-14 (6 protons and 8 neutrons).
All carbon isotopes have the same number of neutrons.
