Composition of the nuclei of two atomic species A and B is given as under. Give the mass numbers of A and B. What is the relation between the two species and which element or elements do they represent

A B
Protons =6 Protons=6
Neutrons=6 Neutrons =8

 

Solution

Mass number of A = 6 + 6 = 12
Atomic number of A = 6Composition of the nuclei of two atomic species A and B is given as under. Give the mass numbers of A and B. The relation between the two species and element represented as: 
Mass number of B = 6 + 8 = 14
Atomic number of B = 6
Therefore, A and B have the same atomic number but different mass number.
So, Atoms of the same element i.e. carbon and are isotopes to each other.
