Question

he atoms in a sample of carbon must contain nuclei with the same number of A) electrons. B) neutrons. C) nucleolus. D) protons.

Answer 1

Answer:

Protons

Explanation:

• Atoms are the smallest particles of elements that can take part in chemical reactions.
• They are made of sub-atomic particles: protons, neutrons, and electrons.
• Neutrons and protons are found in the nucleus of the atom while electrons are found orbiting around the nucleus in the energy levels of the atom.
• Elements may contain several isotopes, these are atoms of the same element that have the same atomic number but a different mass number.
• In other words, isotopes have an equal number of protons but a different number of neutrons.
• Therefore, all atoms of a sample carbon must have a similar atomic number or an equal number of protons in their nuclei
