What are the charges of carbon-12, carbon-13, and carbon-14?

Asked by Kimberlie277

Answer (3)

**Carbon 12 **(the most common) has 6 protons and 6 neutrons.
**Carbon 13 **has 6 protons an 7 neutrons.
**Carbon 14 **has 6 protons and 8 neutrons and is radioactive.

What is molecule?
Molecule is defined as number of atoms combined together, that shows the most smaller **chemical compound's **fundamental unit that participate in chemical reaction. In the combination of atoms attractive forces play a vital role and it helps to bound the atoms by a chemical bond.
**Liquid **consist of small range of order and the reason behind this is intermolecular attractive force which is very strong and due to this reason molecules are packed together tightly. Due to presence of high kinetic energy the molecules present in the liquid move rapidly and fastly with one another.
Water is considered to be the simpler molecule and it consist of **hydrogen **and oxygen atom bounded together and due to the reason of high electronegativity of the oxygen's atom the bonds present are polar as well as covalent. Due to presence of high kinetic energy the molecules present in the liquid move rapidly and fastly with one another.
Therefore, **Carbon 12 **(the most common) has 6 protons and 6 neutrons.
**Carbon 13 **has 6 protons an 7 neutrons.
**Carbon 14 **has 6 protons and 8 neutrons and is radioactive.

Carbon-12, Carbon-13, and Carbon-14 all have 6 protons and 6 electrons, making their charge neutral (0). The differences lie in the number of neutrons: Carbon-12 has 6 neutrons, Carbon-13 has 7, and Carbon-14 has 8. Therefore, all three isotopes have a charge of 0.
