Isotope
An atom of an element that differs in the number of neutrons compared with other atoms in the same element is called an isotope. Isotopes have the same number of protons and electrons but different numbers of neutrons, resulting in variations in atomic mass.
Atoms of the same element with varying numbers of neutrons are isotopes.
The number of neutrons in an isotope differs, leading to variations in mass number. Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons (atomic number) but different numbers of neutrons.
neutrons
Isotopes, which are atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons.
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.
No, the isotopes of a single element differ in the no. of neutrons
An atom of the same element that differs in the number of neutrons is known as an isotope. Isotopes have the same number of protons and electrons, which means they belong to the same element and have similar chemical properties. However, their differing neutron counts result in different atomic masses and can lead to variations in stability, with some isotopes being radioactive. For example, carbon-12 and carbon-14 are both isotopes of carbon, with different numbers of neutrons.
The number of neutrons differ for each isotope of a chemical element.
Two different isotopes of an element have different numbers of neutrons. That's what an isotope is. So, no, isotopes of an element can not have the same number of neutrons.
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.
Isotopes are atoms of the same element that have different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei. This leads to variations in atomic mass for isotopes of the same element.
