What else can I help you with?
When atoms of the some elements differ in the number of neutrons?
isotopes
What is the key difference that causes the atoms of one element to differ from the atoms of the other elements?
number of protons
Elements that differ in mass number are?
Such atoms are isotopes and belong to the same element.
Do all elements of the periodic table have the same type of atoms?
No. Atoms differ in number of protons, neutrons and electrons.
Why do nuclei of some atoms of the same elements differ in their number of neutrons?
Because of isotopes
How atoms and elements differ from one another?
An element is a composition of many atoms. Thus you can hold NaCl (salt) in your hand. You can't hold the atoms it makes up.
Can atoms of the same element differ in atomic number?
no. elements are defined by their atomic number (the number of protons).
Do all the atoms of a particular elements have the same number of neutrons?
No, the isotopes of a single element differ in the no. of neutrons
Are atoms of the same elements exactly alike?
yes other than the electron count may differ.
How does elements in gold differ from a gold compound itself?
Gold is gold...a gold compound has other atoms bonded to the gold atoms, but the gold atoms don't really change.
What is the key difference that causes atoms of one element to differ from the other atoms of all other elements?
The key difference that causes atoms of one element to differ from all other elements is the number of protons in their nucleus. This number, known as the atomic number, determines the element's specific properties.
How do atoms differ from compounds?
An atom is the smallest particle there can be and can't be broken down any further while compounds are composed of two or more different atoms of elements.
