This phenomenon is probable possible for hydrogen, boron, nitrogen, carbon, oxygen and lithium isotopes. Repeated cycles of chemical reactions can lead to some fractionation by ion exchange or other processes.

What is the name for atoms of an element that have different masses?
An atom or element that have different masses are known as isotopes.
Does isotopes affect the physical properties of the element?
Isotopes contribute to the atomic weight of a chemical element.
Can isotopes of an element have the same number of neutrons?
Two different isotopes of an element have different numbers of neutrons. That's what an isotope is. So, no, isotopes of an element can not have the same number of neutrons.
The main difference isotopes of the same element has to do with the number of?
Isotopes of the same element have different numbers of neutrons.
How do the isotopes of given element differ from one another?
isotopes of a given element differ in the number of neutrons they have.
What is the name for atoms of an element that have different masses?
An atom or element that have different masses are known as isotopes.
How does an element differ from its isotopes?
Isotopes of the same element have different number of neutrons.
What are facts about isotopes of the same element?
Isotopes of the same element have a different number of neutrons.
How are isotopes the same?
How isotopes same as element alike?
Does isotopes affect the physical properties of the element?
Isotopes contribute to the atomic weight of a chemical element.
Does isotopes only occur on heavier element?
No - the lightest element Hydrogen has three known isotopes
What Have different isotopes of the same element?
Isotopes of the same element have different numbers of neutrons and mass.
Can isotopes of an element have the same number of neutrons?
Two different isotopes of an element have different numbers of neutrons. That's what an isotope is. So, no, isotopes of an element can not have the same number of neutrons.
How do you know the difference between isotopes and an element?
Isotopes are atoms of an element having different number of electrons.
What are the common isotopes of this element?
You have not told us what element "this" element is.
What is the different of isotopes and a same element?
Isotopes are atoms of the same element that are only different by the number of neutrons they have
How do isotopes of an element differ?
Different isotopes of an element differ in the number of neutrons and thus in their atomic weight.
