What is isotopic abundance?
The total mass of an isotope in a natural sample
The number of neutrons in an isotope of an element
The number of protons in an isotope of an element
Relative amount of each isotope of an element found in a natural sample
Isotopes have the same number of protons but different number of what?

neutrons
protons
electrons
Give an example of an element and its isotopes.
Carbon - Carbon-12, Carbon-13, Carbon-14
Oxygen - Oxygen-16, Oxygen-17, Oxygen-18
Hydrogen - Hydrogen-1, Hydrogen-2, Hydrogen-3
Nitrogen - Nitrogen-14, Nitrogen-15, Nitrogen-16
How is isotopic abundance calculated?
By counting the number of protons in a sample
By measuring the temperature of the sample
By analyzing the color of the sample
By measuring the relative amount of each isotope in a given sample.
What is the significance of isotopes in science and industry?
Isotopes are only used in agriculture, not in science and industry.
Isotopes have no significance in science and industry.
Isotopes have various applications in science and industry.
Isotopes are only used for medical purposes, not in science and industry.
Explain the concept of stable and unstable isotopes.
Stable isotopes have a stable nucleus and do not undergo radioactive decay, while unstable isotopes have an unstable nucleus and undergo radioactive decay.
Stable isotopes have a stable nucleus and undergo radioactive decay, while unstable isotopes have an unstable nucleus and do not undergo radioactive decay.
Stable isotopes have an unstable nucleus and undergo radioactive decay, while unstable isotopes have a stable nucleus and do not undergo radioactive decay.
Stable isotopes have a stable nucleus and do not undergo radioactive decay, while unstable isotopes have a stable nucleus and undergo radioactive decay.
