An isotope
isotope
The number of neutrons present in the atom.
When an atom of an element has a different number of neutrons.
IsotopesThe number of protons in the nucleus of an atom determines the element. The number of neutrons can vary. If two atoms of the same element have a different number of neutrons in their nuclei, they are isotopes of that element.
This atom is called isotope.

An isotope
Isotopesare variants of atoms of a particular chemical element, which have differing numbers of neutrons. Atoms of a particular element by definition must contain the same number of protons but may have a distinct number of neutrons which differs from atom to atom, without changing the designation of the atom as a particular element.
Isotope
One element differs from another element by the number of protons in their atoms. The number of protons in the atom is known as the atomic number. Also one isotope of an element differs from another isotope of the same element by the number of neutrons in their atoms.
isotope
Yes. Atoms with a different number of neutrons are called isotopes of that atom, but a variation in the number of neutrons does not change what the atom is.
The number of neutrons present in the atom.
The mass number is the sum of protons + neutrons.
When an atom of an element has a different number of neutrons.
