NO. Isotopes are forms of an element that have the same numbers of protons and electrons, but differing numbers of neutrons. For example Helium-3 has two protons, two electrons, and one neutron and Helium-4 has two protons, two electrons, and two neutrons.

A form of an element that has a different number of electrons than the number of protons is an "ion".

How are isotopes tha same and how are they different?

All the isotopes of a chemical element have the same number of protons and electrons but the number of neutrons is different.


How are isotopes the same but different?

Isotopes are different forms of the same element which have different numbers of neutrons in their atomic nuclei. A given element is identified by the number of protons in its nucleus; that's its atomic number. Two different isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons, but each has a different number of neutrons in its nucleus. Different isotopes of the same element are chemically the same.


What is the same about isotopes of the same elements?

The isotopes of the same element have an identical number of protons and electrons; the number of neutrons is different.


How much do isotopes that share an element differ in the number?

How are isotopes different from state atoms?

The atoms of a chemical element can exist in different types. These are called isotopes. They have the same number of protons (and electrons), but different numbers of neutrons. Different isotopes of the same element have different masses.


How are the isotopes of an element are alike and how are they different?

The isotopes of an element are alike in that they have the same number of protons, electrons, and the same chemical properties. The isotopes are different in that they have different numbers of neutrons and thus different atomic masses.


What are two different neutral isotopes of the same element have in common?

The number of protons and electrons is the same.
