They have a different number of neutrons.
What else can I help you with?
Why need to know the percentage of each isotope of an element to determine the atomic mass?
Because each isotope of an element has a mass different from any other isotope of the same element, and the atomic mass of an element is an average, weighted by the proportion of each isotope, in the naturally occurring element.
Different isotopes of an element contain different numbers of which particles?
The number of neutrons differ for each isotope of a chemical element.
How are an atom an element and an isotope different from each other?
An element is a class of substances An atom is the smallest possible piece of an element. An isotope is an electrically charged atom.
Are beryllium atoms identical?
Each atom of an isotope of beryllium (or of another element) is different from the atoms of an other isotope. But all the atoms of an isotope are identical.
Which is a factor in determining the average atomic mass of an element?
The two main factors in determining the average atomic mass of an element are:the isotopic composition of the element (the fraction of each isotope)the atomic mass of each isotope
Isotopes of an element differ from each other in the number of?
Isotopes of the same element differ in the number of neutrons. Isotopes have different physical properties but similar chemical properties.
What variant forms of an atom differing in the number of neutrons?
Isotopes are variant forms of an atom that differ in the number of neutrons. Each isotope of an element has the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons. These variations in neutrons give each isotope a slightly different atomic mass.
How do isoptopes of an element differ from each other?
Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei. This results in different atomic masses for each isotope. Despite the difference in atomic mass, isotopes of an element have similar chemical properties due to their identical electron configurations.
Does the atomic mass of an element depend upon the relative abundance of each isotope of the element?
Yes, the atomic mass of an element takes into account the relative abundance of each isotope of that element. This is because atomic mass is the weighted average of the masses of all isotopes of an element based on their natural abundance.
If an element has three isotopes with known natural abundance percentages what other information is needed to find the average atomic mass of the element?
The abundance percentage of each isotope
WHEN DO ELEMENTS DIFFER FROM EACH OTHER?
The difference is made by the number of protons, specifi for each element.
Why is the chemical property of an isotope similar?
Isotopes differ each other from the number of neutrons which is a chemically inert subatomic particle.
