Interpretation:
Arsenic is monotopic, meaning of this statement is to be explained and the three other monotopic elements are to be written.
Concept Introduction:
For a given element, the number of protons and electrons is always same. The number of neutrons for different atoms of a given element may or may not be same. When the number of neutrons for different atoms of a given element is different, then that element is known as monotopic.
A nuclide is an atomic species characterized by the specific constitution of its nucleus, i.e., by its number of protons or

- Does any element with Z ≤ 92 match the description? A main group element on period 4.arrow_forwardA robot spacecraft returned samples from the planetesimal 98765 ALEKS, located in the outer Solar System. Mass-spectroscopic analysis produced the following data on the isotopes of molybdenum in these samples: relative (amu) abundance mass isotope 97 Mo 96.91 91.1% 92 Mo 91.91 8.9% Use these measurements to complete the entry for molybdenum in the Periodic Table that would be used on 98765 ALEKS. Be sure your answers have the correct number of significant digits. Caution: your correct answer will have the same format but not necessarily the same numbers as the entry for molybdenum in the Periodic Table we use here on Earth.

- Boron, atomic number 5, occurs naturally as two isotopes, 10B and 11B, with natural abundances of 19.9% and 80.1%, respectively. (a) In what ways do the two isotopes differ from each other? Does the electronic configuration of 10B differ from that of 11B? (b) Draw the orbital diagram for an atom of 11B. Which electrons are the valence electrons? (c) Indicate three ways in which the 1s electrons in boron differ from its 2s electrons. (d) Elemental boron reacts with fluorine to form BF3, a gas.

- Particles called muons exist in cosmic rays and can be created in particle accelerators. Muons are very similar to electrons, having the same charge and spin, but they have a mass 207 times greater. When muons arecaptured by an atom, they orbit just like an electron but with a smaller radius, since the mass in aB =0.529x 10-10 m is 207 me .(a) Calculate the radius of the n=1 orbit for a muon in a uranium ion( Z=92).(b) Compare this with the 7.5-fm radius of a uranium nucleus. Note that since the muon orbits inside the electron, it falls into a hydrogen-like orbit. Since your answer is less than the radius of the nucleus, you can seethat the photons emitted as the muon falls into its lowest orbit can give information about the nucleus.arrow_forward28.
