Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 3

Which one of the following statements is correct about isotopes?

Detailed Solution for Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 3
Each atomic number identifies a specific element, but not the isotope; an atom of a given element may have a wide range in its number of neutrons. The number of nucleons (both protons and neutrons) in the nucleus is the atom's mass number, and each isotope of a given element has a different mass number.
Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 4

The two isotopes of chlorine are 3517Cl and 3717Cl in the ratio of 3:1. What is the average atomic mass of the chlorine atom?​

Detailed Solution for Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 4

Average atomic mass of chlorine is given by:

(35 x 3) + (37 x 1)/4 = 35.50 u

Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 5

Which one of the following statements is incorrect?

Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 6

Argon has atomic number of 18 and mass number of 40. Calcium has atomic 20 and mass number 40. Calcium and argon are examples of _______.

Detailed Solution for Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 6

Atoms of different elements with different atomic numbers and the same mass number are known as isobars. 

Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 7

The isotopic composition of a certain element X is 80% 24X, 10% 25X and 10% 26X. The relative-atomic mass of X is _______.​

Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 8

Atomic number is equal to:

Detailed Solution for Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 8
Its equal to no.of protons but mass number =no.of protons +no.of neutrons
Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 9

Why do isotopes have different physical properties?

Detailed Solution for Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 9

They have similar chemical properties because isotopes of an element have the same number of electrons as an atom of that element. The electron arrangement is the same owing to same chemical properties. However they have different numbers of neutrons, which affects the mass number. Mass number determines the physical properties such as boiling/melting/density etc

Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 10

An element B has 5 protons and 6 neutrons. What will be the symbol of the element B?​

Detailed Solution for Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 10

Atomic number of B = Number of Protons = Number of electron in element
= 5
Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons = 5 + 6 = 11
So, symbol of B : 115B

Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 11

The atomic number of an element having mass number 23 and number of neutron 12 is ________.

Detailed Solution for Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 11
A neutral atom will have the same number of electrons is does protons. Since it has an atomic number of 11 it must have 11 protons. Since it has an atomic mass of 23 it must have 12 neutrons.
Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 12

Which form of iodine is used for the treatment of goiter?

Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 13

The total number of neutrons in 1224Mg2+is:​

Detailed Solution for Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 13
Mass of Mg = no.of protons + no.of neutrons
no.of protons = 12 [ atomic no. = no.of protons = 12]
mass of Mg = 24 
so, no.of neutrons = 12

Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 14

Neon occurs as two isotopes of mass numbers 20 and 22. Its relative atomic mass is 20.2. What is the percentage of 20Ne in naturally occurring neon?

Detailed Solution for Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 14

Let the relative abundance% of Ne -20 = x1
So, relative abundance% of Ne -22 =  x2

Now, we know that atomic mass = sum of relative abundance in atomic mass of each isotope / 100% 

20.2 = 20 x1 + 22 x2 / x1 +x2 
20.2 x1 + 20.2x2 = 20x1 + 22x2
0.2x1 =  1.8 x2 

x1 / x2  = 1.8/ 0.2 = 9/1   ( relative abundance) 

x1%  =  9/10 * 100  = 90%  lighter isotopes
x2%  =  1/ 10* 100  = 10%   heavier isotope 

Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 15

Which of the following elements has 17 electrons and 17 protons?

Detailed Solution for Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 15

The atomic number is the number of electrons present in an atom. We know that an atom has the same number of electrons & Protons. Therefore Chlorine is the element that has 17 protons. Hence the element is Chlorine.

Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 16

Find the symbol of an element X, if its mass number is A and atomic number is Z respectively.

Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 17

The atomic number and the mass number of an element A are 14 and 28 respectively. The number of neutrons are:

Detailed Solution for Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 17

Given, Z = 14  , A = 28 ;
 We know that Z = p=14
And, A = p + n ⇒ 28 = 14+n 
  n = 28 -14 
  n =  14 
Hence, no. Of neutrons are 14.

Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 18

Which of the following statement is correct for isotopes?

Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 19

An neutral element A has 3 electrons, the atomic number of an element is _______.

Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 20

An atom is represented by symbol 2314M. What does the number 23 represent?​

Detailed Solution for Test: Atomic Number, Mass Number and isotopes - Question 20
Nucleons reside inside the nucleus and are denoted by the mass number is denoted as “A.” All atoms of a particular chemical element will have the same atomic number, number of protons present in the nucleus of an atom, but different mass numbers.
