Different atoms of the same element possessing different atomic masses but having same atomic number are known as Isotopes. Since the isotopic atoms have the same atomic number, they must contain an equal number of protons. As their atomic masses are different, there must be a difference in the number of neutrons they possess. They will show similar chemical properties but their physical properties will be different due to different masses.
