How do isotopes of the same element differ with regards to subatomic particles?

Same number of protons; different number of neutrons. The number of electrons will also be the same, assuming a neutral atom.

What is the different between Best regards and kind regards?
Best regards seems to be little 'abrupt' whereas kind regards sounds smooth and easily flowing like 'kindness with inherent element of liking someone in a general manner'

What does PSI mean in regards to a hair follicle drug test?
Particles Per Square Inch. :)
Are all atoms of a given element identical to one another and different from atoms of other elements?
No. Some may have different numbers of neutrons. Atoms of the same element (atoms with the same number of protons in the nucleus) may have different numbers of neutrons, and so will have different masses. As an example, chlorine is a mixture of different isotopes with some of the atoms having different neutrons numbers.
What element has an atomic number of 33?
A lot of them. The thing about the number of neutrons an atom can have is that it varies. There's this characteristic associated with atoms called isotopic identity. Each element has a given number of protons, and this is what determines what element it is. But that element can have a number of different "flavors" as regards how many neutrons it has. These are the different isotopes or radioisotopes of that element. It is nickel that is the only element with a stable isotope that has 33 neutrons. But note that there are a number of elements from Period 4 that have 33 neutrons. These isotopes will all be radioactive, of course, and some will be naturally occurring and some will be synthetic.
IS Alpha particles dangerous in regards to external exposure?
Usually, no. Alpha particles may be able to cause a lot of damage if they can get inside you, but they can easily be stopped by a piece of paper.
Why dont particles in a solid move as freely as particles in a gas?
since the interaction forces or vander waal forces between the particles of solid is more more than that of gas so they dont.....thx...with best regards..
What is Si as it regards to metal?
Probably silicon, and element frequently added to alloys, especially in cast metals.
What two elements would result from the alpha decay of plutonium 238?
First off, it's better to be more careful in regards to the word element. What you actually mean is isotope. The difference is subtle, but important. If I had a large rock of Uranium ore that was just mined, you could say I had the element Uranium. However, the element is made up of a certain percentage of isotopes, those being a nucleus that has the same number of protons, 92 in this case, but different numbers of neutrons.Secondly, alpha decay is defined as the spontaneous emission of a helium 4 nucleus from an isotope, so one of your two resulting elements when alpha decay is involved is always going to be helium. The other element is found by simply subtracting 2 from Pu's atomic number, which is 94, giving you the resulting element's atomic number, which is 92, otherwise known as uranium, specifically, the isotope U 234.
What is the definition of elements in regards to math?
Elements can be an element of a set. Lets say you have a set of numbers like A{2,3,5,8,45,86,9,1} B{2,7,0,100} all those numbers are called elements of that set 2 is an element of set A and B 100 is an element of set B 45 is an element of set A
In regards to air filtering what does HEPA stand for?
HEPA is a short form for the term High Efficient Particulate Air which refers to a good quality of air filter which removes harmful pollens and dust particles. A HEPA filter is for removal of particles indoors.
What two elements are involved in nuclear fusion reaction?
In the sun it is just protons, which are hydrogen nuclei. On earth experiments are using two isotopes of hydrogen, deuterium and tritium. These are still the same element, hydrogen, just two different isotopes.
