Which of the following atoms has the same number of neutrons as 9be? 9b 10b 10be 12c

-

¹⁰B

Explanation: -

For ⁹Be,

The atomic number is 4.

The Mass number is 9.

The number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number

= 9 - 4 = 5

For ⁹B,

The atomic number is 5.

The Mass number is 9.

The number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number

= 9-5 = 4

For ¹⁰B,

The atomic number is 5.

The Mass number is 10.

The number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number

= 10-5 = 5

For ¹⁰Be,

TThe atomic number is 4.

The Mass number is 10.

The number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number

= 10-4 = 6

For ¹²C,

The atomic number is 6.

The Mass number is 12.

The number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number

= 12-6 = 6

Which gives the smaller amount of product,  is the limiting reactant.

In particular esterification, 1-butanol is the limiting reagent
