Which of the following properties would differ among isotopes of the same element? a. melting point b. flammability c. ability to rust d. ability to oxidize

The answer is A. Isotopes only differ in the number of neutrons in the nucleus of their atoms. Otherwise, all other subatomic particles are the same. The isotope with the more neutrons in its nucleus is therefore, heavier (have higher mass number). They share the same chemical properties but have slight physical differences such as boiling points with the heavier element having a slightly higher boiling point that the lighter element.

you need to have a picture of the atom that way we can answer it

answer : third trial had the contaminated sample and the correct value for dhrxn should be 1000 kj/mol

explanation :

let us write down the given equations

equation 1 :

equation 2 :

equation 3 :

let us use hess's law to find out which 2 equations can be added to get the third equation.

let us reverse equation 2 and multiply it by 2. the new equation that we get is,

equation 4 :

let us add equation 1 & 4

the above equation is similar to equation 3 but has different value for dhrxn.

therefore third trial had the contaminated sample and the correct value for dhrxn should be 1000 kj/mol
