Yes. Isotopes are simply normal elements with a different number of constituent neutrons in their nucleus. All isotopes have a nucleus with an identical number of protons to its element.

What do isotopes and nucleus have in common?

Isotopes and nuclei are both related to atoms. Isotopes are atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei. The nucleus is the central part of an atom that contains protons and neutrons.

Where is the nucleus in a Krypton?

The nucleus of any atom is in the center; the nucleus of krypton has 36 protons and a variable number of neutrons, depending on the isotopes.


How are istopes formed?

Isotopes are formed through processes like radioactive decay, where a nucleus gains or loses protons and neutrons to become a different element. Isotopes can also be formed through nuclear reactions, such as fusion or fission, which change the composition of the nucleus. The different number of protons or neutrons in isotopes gives them unique properties and varying stability.


What is a similarity and a difference between isotopes of an element?

All isotopes of an element have the same number of protons in the atomic nucleus, which is its atomic number on the periodic table. All isotopes of an element contain different numbers of neutrons in their atomic nuclei, which causes the isotopes of an element to vary in mass number (protons + neutrons).


Isotopes can have the same what?

Isotopes of an element have the same numbers of protons in the nucleus (and corresponding electrons). It's not so much "can have", as "do have". It's just a different number of neutrons that makes a different isotope.
