True. Isotopes are defined by the amount of neutral neutrons which have no effect on the polarity of the atom. ions are defined by a differing amount of protons and electrons, therefore charging them.
Not necessarily no, not strictly speaking, but it can be. An Ion is a charged particle. As an example SO42- is an ion. It is not a charged atom. It is a charged species formed from 5 atoms. A lone proton (H+ ) is a charged atom of hydrogen after it has been stripped of one electron. Cl- is an ion and in this case yes - it is a charged atom.
False.
False, different isotopes of the same element have different numbers of neutrons.
False, neutrons are not charged and gamma rays aren't charged particles.

That, for the most part, would be true. If the compound is truly molecular, then ions would not form, and it would be a non electrolyte.
It is true that a charged particle is called an ion. Ions that are positively charged are called cations and ions that are negatively charged are called anions.

False
true
False. Number of neutrons.
No, it's called "radioactive." "Retroactive" is something that's active in regards to the past.
False.
False, different isotopes of the same element have different numbers of neutrons.
False, neutrons are not charged and gamma rays aren't charged particles.
