How are two isotopes of an element similar to each other?
The numbers of protons and electrons are identical.
How are isotopes identifield?
By the numbers of protons
Is an isotope a electron?
Isotopes have same number of electrons. They have same number of protons, so their atomic numbers are same. They have different numbers of neutrons resulting different mass numbers.
What are the atomic numbers and mass numbers of the stable and radioactive forms?
1. The atomic number is equivalent to the number of protons in the atomic nucleus of a chemical element. The number of protons is identical for all the isotopes of an element. 2. The mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons in the atomic nucleus of an isotope.
Can isotopes exist because atoms can have different numbers of protons?
No. Isotopes exist because atoms with the same number of protons per nucleus can have differing numbers of neutrons per nucleus.
How are two isotopes of an element similar to each other?
The numbers of protons and electrons are identical.
What are elements with identical number for protons and different number of neutrons called?
The answer you are looking for is "isotopes" HOWEVER, please note you CAN NOT HAVE 2 elements with the same number of PROTONS. This is because the number of protons DEFINES an element. Isotopes are the SAME element but with differing numbers of neutrons.
Isotopes have the same number of but different numbers of?
The number of protons (and electrons in a neutral atom) is identical. The number of neutrons is different for each isotope.
Is it true that the number of protons is different for the two isotopes?
Not; the number of protons in isotopes is identical; only the number of neutrons is different.
How are isotopes identifield?
By the numbers of protons
Is an isotope a electron?
Isotopes have same number of electrons. They have same number of protons, so their atomic numbers are same. They have different numbers of neutrons resulting different mass numbers.
What shares the same element as isotopes?
The atomic number (number of protons) is identical.
What is the same about isotopes of the same elements?
The isotopes of the same element have an identical number of protons and electrons; the number of neutrons is different.
How many electron and protons and neutrons does gold have?
Gold has 79 electrons and protons, and 118 neutrons (in the isotope 197Au); other isotopes of gold have different numbers of neutrons.
What two diffent neutral isotopes of the same element have in common?
The number of protons is identical.
What are the atomic numbers and mass numbers of the stable and radioactive forms?
1. The atomic number is equivalent to the number of protons in the atomic nucleus of a chemical element. The number of protons is identical for all the isotopes of an element. 2. The mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons in the atomic nucleus of an isotope.
Are the Isotopes are atoms of the same element with the same number of protons and?
The isotopes of an element have the same number of protons, but different numbers of neutrons.
