How many protons and neutrons do the two isotopes of carbon (c14 &c12) have

The answer to your question is below

Explanation:

Data

the number of protons = ?

the number of neutrons = ?

Carbon-14

Carbon-12

Process

Protons are the positive charges located in the nucleus of an atom.

Neutrons are the neutral charges located in the nucleus of an atom.

-The number after the names represented the atomic mass. Carbon will always have 6 protons.

Neutrons = Atomic mass - protons

                          Protons                 Neutrons

Carbon-14               6                            8

Carbon-12               6                            6

the old alchemists made significant contributions to science even though there starting premises were off a bit. their conclusions after failure would steer them into better directions for investigation. science is no more than close observation and the initial mistakes result in rethinking and retrying experiments.
