Which option is an isotope with 6 protons and 8 neutrons? (1 point) O oxygen-6
o carbon-14
o oxygen-14
o carbon-8

The mass number of an isotope is the sum of the number of protons and number of neutrons hence the correct answer is carbon-14.

Isotopes are atoms of the same element that has the same number of protons but different number of neutrons.

The atomic number is the same as the number of protons in the atom. Since there are six protons in the atom, the element must be carbon.

There are eight neutrons meaning that the mass  number is 8 + 6 = 14

Therefore, the isotope is carbon-14.

Carbon-14

Explanation:

It is because it have 6 protons and 8 neutrons which are added together to form an atomic mass of 14.

you need to take a look at the periodic system in order to sort these elements into pairs that would most likely exhibit similar chemical properties. first, you need to find elements that are found in the same group (groups are vertical in the periodic system), and then to see whether they have the same valence number. if they meet these criteria, they will have similar properties.

the first pair: ne (neon) and kr (krypton), are noble gases found in group 8

the second pair: li (lithium) and k (potassium), found in group 1

the third pair: s (sulfur) and te (tellurium), found in group 6
