nope, just neutrons
i really don't know so can someone answer it that knows
That isn't really true. What makes atoms more reactive is if their electronic configuration is nearly that of a noble gas -- in other words is either has just one or two electrons less or more than a noble gas.So elements with either 1, 2, 6 or 7 valence electrons tend to be especially reactive.so the guy who gave the first answer doesnt know what hes talking about.
a. each is a good conductor of electricity b. they are never found uncombined in nature c. they lose two electrons in chemical reactions
It simply means that electrons can only have certain energies. These "levels" are often in terms of n, such as n1, n2, n3, and so on. Let's say that n1=1000 eV (a unit for energy) and n2=2000 eV. It would be impossible for an electron in an atom to have any energy between those two values. This follows true for any energy level; this can be shown better like this: there can be no electron energy found between nx and nx+1 when the electron is in an atom.
true
Yes, it is true. Isotopes have the same number of protons an electrons; the number of neutrons is different.
False, different isotopes of the same element have different numbers of neutrons.
All neutral atoms of an element, including any of its isotopes, always do have the same number of electrons. The existence of isotopes has nothing to do with the number of electrons in an atom. Instead, the number of neutrons varies between isotopes of the same element. The number of electrons varies from that of a neutral atom only if an ion of the element is formed.
Atoms have isotopes: it is true, the isotopes of the same element have different number of neutrons.
Yes. it is true. Isotopes of the same element always have different number of neutrons.
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.
False. Isotopes are forms of an element that have the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons. Electrons are not involved in determining an element's identity.
Not isomers, Isotopes

the differences in neutrons of the elements
All atoms of the same element are the same.7) Isotopes are a family of atoms all of which have the same number of electrons, have the same number of protons in their atomic centers, but different numbers of neutrons.
Isotopes are atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons. They do have very similar chemical properties. In fact for most purposes we can consider them identical.
