(a) Nitrogen has relatively stable isotopes (half-life greater than 1 second) of mass numbers 13, 14, 15, 16, and 17. (All except 14N and 15N are radioactive.) Calculate how many protons and neutrons are in each of these isotopes of nitrogen. (b) Write the electronic configurations of the third-row elements shown in the partial periodic table in Figure 1-6.

(a) and
(b) and
(c) and
(d) and
(e) and
(f) and
(g) \(\mathrm{CH}_{3}-\mathrm{CH}_{2}-\mathrm{CH}_{2}-\mathrm{CH}_{3}\) and \(\mathrm{CH}_{3}-\mathrm{CH}=\mathrm{CH}-\mathrm{CH}_{3}\)
(h) \(\mathrm{CH}_{2}=\mathrm{CH}-\mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{3}\) and \(\mathrm{CH}_{3}-\mathrm{CH}=\mathrm{CH}-\mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{3}\)
(i) \(\mathrm{CH}_{2}=\mathrm{CHCH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{3}\) and \(\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}=\mathrm{CH}_{2}\)

Solution
Step 1 of 12
Constitutional isomers (structural isomerism represents the compounds with the same molecular formula but have a different arrangement of atoms or groups. Cis-trans isomerism represents the direction of two comparative atoms around a double bond. Compounds with different molecular formulas represent the different compounds.
