An isotope of the element fluorine has 9 protons and 10 neutrons. What is the name of this isotope?fluorine

Fluorine

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

The isotope of fluorine has:

Proton = 9

Neutron = 10

The atomic number is the proton number of the atom.

Therefore, the atomic number = 9

Mass number = proton + Neutron

Mass number = 9 + 10

Mass number = 19

Now comparing the above with the fluorine atom in the periodic table. We'll discover that the isotope is actually fluorine atom.

Therefore, the name of the isotope is fluorine

it can be observed without changing the identity of the object.

it depends on what substance you're talking about as well as many other factors. in quantum mechanics, the observation of particles affects the observers ability to measure certain properties. for example: you can know the velocity of a particle, but you can't know it's position; or you can know it's position, but not it's velocity. it's like trying to find out where a grain of sand is by throwing other grains of sand at it. once you find out where it is, it's been moved. it's also like trying to find an answer to the question of whether or not a tree falling in a forest makes a sound if nobody is there to hear it. paradoxically, the only way to find out is to be there and hear it.
