What conclusions can be drawn about the existence of carbon-12 Carbon-13 and carbon -14?
Carbon-12 and carbon-13 are stable.
The fact that carbon-14 is unstable, with a relatively short half-life (very short compared to the age of the Solar System) means that it must needs have been produced more recently than the creation of the Solar System.
What else can I help you with?
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
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.
Why is the atomic mass scale also called the relative atomic mass scale?
All atomic masses are determined by comparing them to the mass of an atom of carbon12. One atomic mass unit equals one twelfth the mass of an atom of carbon12. That's why its called relativeatomic mass.
What is carbon's atomic mass?
Carbon's atomic mass is ~12.0107. All of those decimals at the end tell us that there is more than one isotope of carbon. If you round the number, you will find the most common isotope of carbon. (Carbon12)IUPAC recommend in this case the expression atomic weight, not atomic mass.The atomic weight of carbon (IUPAC Table, 2009) is [12,0096; 12,0116]. This mean that the atomic weight is variable between the above mentioned limits, depending on the type of the sample.
When naming hydrocarbons what does the suffix yne indicate about the structure of the molecule?
The meaning is the existence of a triple bond in alkynes.
How many carbon atoms are present in a mole of carbon12?
6.023 x 1023
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 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.

What would be an isotope of carbon12?
The 12 in Carbon-12 designates the isotope which has an atomic mass of 12. This is the most abundant isotope of carbon. Carbon has an atomic number of 6, therefore it has 6 protons. Carbon 12, therefore has 6 neutrons. Carbon 14 is another isotope of carbon, still having 6 protons, but has 8 neutrons, so it has an atomic mass of (6 + 8 = 14). See related link for more information on carbon isotopes.
