Isotopes and isobars are very different. Isotopes are different atoms of the same element that have varying atomic masses (such as U-237 and U-235; i.e. they differ only in the number of neutrons contained within the nucleus), while isobars are a computed line through a variable region that all have the same value (think about the lines on a meteorological map). The specific line around a low pressure system where the pressure at every point on the line is the same atmospheric pressure is an isobar.
Isobars are nuclei of different elements having the same mass number but different atomic number.

∙ 9y agoThere are many examples of isobars. Examples would be S (with 40 isotopes), Cl (with 40 isotopes), and Ar (with 40 isotopes). Isobars are atoms that have the same number of nucleons.

Carbon 14 and introgen 14 are not isotopes?
they r isobars for example Argon-40 and calcium-40 same mass no and diff atomic nos = isobars same atomic no and diff masses = isotopes
Is the atomic number of an element the sum of the protons and electrons in an atom of that element?
Atomic number is the number of protons only=number of electrons
How are isobars and isotherms alike?
Isobars are lines of equal pressure, isotherms are lines of equal temperature. And isobars are pretty and gorgeous, and isotherms are thermometers.
What is the difference between an isobar map and an isothern map?
isobars are lines of equal pressure , isotherms are line of equal temperature that's the difference this is by jenisea phoenix lol smile face
WHAT DO Isobars represent?
Isobars on a map represent areas on the map of similar atmospheric pressure.

What is the similarities between isobars and isotherms?
what is the similaraties between isobars and isotherms ]
Are isotopes part of a weather forecast?
No, but isobars are. They are like contour lines, just showing pressure, and typically on less detail.
What are three isotopes and isobars of carbon?
isotopes of carbon are atomic no. 6 mass 12 , atomic no.6 mass 13 , atomic no. 6 mass 14
Is the atomic number of an element the sum of the protons and electrons in an atom of that element?
Atomic number is the number of protons only=number of electrons
As wind velocity decreases the distance between isobars on a weather map will?
Increase. Isobars represent lines of constant atmospheric pressure, and when wind velocity decreases, the pressure gradient weakens. A weaker pressure gradient results in isobars being spaced further apart on a weather map.
What are the differences between elements and isotopes?
element vs isotopes
What is the purpose of isobars?
Isobars show different pressure areas on a weather map.
Where would you generally see isobars?
Yea, where would you generally see isobars??
How are isobars and isotherms alike?
Isobars are lines of equal pressure, isotherms are lines of equal temperature. And isobars are pretty and gorgeous, and isotherms are thermometers.

What do isobars and isotherms show on a weather map?
Isobars are lines of areas with similar air pressure, with the areas in between the lines gradually leading up to the next line. Isotherms are lines of areas with similar temperature.
