16
Q

Why are rarer isotopes used as tracers?

A

They react the smae because they have the sname number of valence electrons.
They can be detected from the most common isotope.

17
Q

How do you differentiate between a rare isotop and a common isotope?

A

Through their mass and how radio active they are.

18
Q

What is the job of protons in an atom?

A

Tells you the identity.

19
Q

What is the job of a neutron in an atom?

A

To hold the nucleus together.

20
Q

What is the job of an electron in an atom?

A

Responsible for reactivity; bonding.
