What else can I help you with?
Do isotopes contain more electrons than other Atoms?
No, they contain different number of electrons. Isotopes differ in their number of neutrons.
Do the atomic number of isotopes differ?
No. Isotopes have the same atomic number, protons and electrons. They have different neutrons.
Would isotopes of the same element have the same number of electrons?
Yea because isotopes only differ in their # of neutrons, not electrons
How much do isotopes that share an element differ in the number?
Isotopes have a different number of neutrons but the number of protons and electrons is the same.
Do the atomic numbers of such isotopes differ?
No. Isotopes have the same atomic number, protons and electrons. They have different neutrons.
Can 2 isotopes of the same element differ in the number of electrons?
No. The only difference between 2 isotopes of the same element is the number of neutrons.
How do isotopes of a given element differ How are they similar?
Isotopes have same number of electrons, same atomic no. but different mass no. They are from the same element like isotopes of carbon. They are not having same number of neutrons. They show same electronic configuration.
What do the nuclei of different technetium isotopes have in common?
All have the same number of protons and electrons. They differ in the number of neutrons.
Do Isotopes differ from each other only in the number of electrons contained?
Isotopes differ in the number of neutrons. All atoms are neutral - they always contain the same number of protons (positive) as electrons (negative). If they lose or gain electrons, they become ions. If they lose or gain protons (as in radioactive decay), they become a different element. An element is defined by its atomic number, which is the number of protons. Atoms may differ in their atomic mass. The difference is due to differing numbers of neutrons. The atomic mass on the periodic chart is the proportional average of all the naturally occurring isotopes. To determine how many neutrons in an atom, subtract the atomic number from the atomic mass.
How do the atoms of one isotope differ from those of other isotopes of the same element?
Primarily, isotopes differ in the number of neutrons in the nucleus. Secondarily, because some combinations of protons and neutrons produce an unstable nucleus, they may differ by being radioactive.
True or false two isotopes of carbon are carbon-12 and carbon-14 theese isotopes differ from one another by two ELECTRONS?
False. Carbon-12 and carbon-14 are isotopes of carbon that differ in the number of neutrons in their nuclei, not electrons. Carbon-12 has 6 neutrons, while carbon-14 has 8 neutrons. The number of electrons in an atom is determined by its atomic number, which is the same for both isotopes of carbon (6 electrons).
Neutral atoms of the same element can differ in their number of what?
Neutrons. If the differ in electrons they are not neutral and if they differ in protons then they are no longer the same element as the number of protons determines the name of the element.
