There are various isotopic dating methods other than radiocarbon dating, and even more in development. Some include:
Natural isotopes of carbon are: C-12, C-13 and C-14.
The stable carbon isotopes are carbon-12 & carbon-13. There are several other unstable isotopes.
Carbon 14 has two additional neutrons compared to other isotopes of carbon. Carbon 12 is the most prevalent form of carbon. Carbon 13 also exists. Carbon 14 is radioactive and will eventually break down into other atoms.
The element with 6 neutrons and 8 other neutrons is carbon. Carbon-12 is the most common isotope of carbon, with 6 protons and 6 neutrons. Carbon-14 is another isotope of carbon, with 6 protons and 8 neutrons.
False, different isotopes of the same element have different numbers of neutrons.

Isotopes.
Yes Carbon 12, Carbon 13 and Carbon 14 are isotopes of carbon. Diamond and graphite are allotropes.
Carbon 12, carbon 13, carbon 14.
Carbon 14 has two additional neutrons compared to other isotopes of carbon. Carbon 12 is the most prevalent form of carbon. Carbon 13 also exists. Carbon 14 is radioactive and will eventually break down into other atoms.

The element with 6 neutrons and 8 other neutrons is carbon. Carbon-12 is the most common isotope of carbon, with 6 protons and 6 neutrons. Carbon-14 is another isotope of carbon, with 6 protons and 8 neutrons.
False, different isotopes of the same element have different numbers of neutrons.
The ratio of carbon-14 (radioactive) to carbon-12 (nonradioactive) is measured.
Some of the isotopes used for this purpose are uranium-238, uranium-235 and potassium-40. However often the dates are not determined directly from isotopes in the fossils themselves, but instead from isotopes in layers of volcanic rocks above and below the fossils and the age of the fossils are estimated between these two measured dates.
