Isotopes of uncharged elements have different numbers of?
Isotopes differ in the number of neutrons they possess.
What do isotopes with uncharged elements have different numbers of?
Specific for a chemical element is the number of protons.
Which isotopes of uncharged elements have different numbers?
The isotopes of the same element has the same atomic number. But the mass number (atomic mass) is different.
Isotopes of an element have different?
Isotopes of elements have differing numbers of neutrons.
How are two isotopes of the same elements different?
The isotopes can have different numbers of neutrons and mass.
Do Isotopes of uranium have different atomic numbers?
No. If they had different atomic numbers, they would not be the same atom and would be different elements. Different isotopes have different mass numbers.
Can isotopes of the same elements have different number of neutrons?
Such isotopes not only can but must have different numbers of neutrons.
What isotopes of uncharded elements have different numbers?
The atomic number of the isotopes of an element is identical; the mass number is different.
How are isotopes related to atomic masses not being whole numbers?
isotopes are elements of the atomic number but have different mass numbers.
How do atoms of different elements differ?
They have different numbers of protons and nuetrons, and feature a different number of electrons at an uncharged state.
How are isotopes different than naturally occurring elements?
Isotopes of an element have different masses because their nuclei have different numbers of neutrons.
What do elements of isotopes have differently?
Because of the difference in mass number. Isotopes must have different numbers of neutrons.
How are isotopes and elements different?
They have different numbers of neutrons, which changes the atomic mass and nuclear properties.
Form of an element having different atomic and number of neutrons?
Isotopes have different numbers of electrons, but not different atomic numbers (numbers of protons) or they'd be different elements.
Do all isotopes of an elements have different numbers of electrons?
All the isotopes of an element have the same number of electrons and protons; different is only the number of neutrons.
Do atoms of a particular elements have different numbers of neutrons?
Yes atoms of the sane element with different numbers of neutrons are known as isotopes.
Does an elements composition vary?
It can if isotopes are present. They can contain different numbers of neutrons in the nucleus.
Why do isotopes on the periodic table have mass numbers that are whole numbers?
On most periodic tables, only elements that do not occur naturally have mass numbers that are whole numbers. All isotopes of these elements are radioactive, and because the isotopes almost always decay at different rates, there is no stable ratio among the isotopes, as there is with elements that have non-radioactive isotopes. On most periodic tables, such mass numbers are listed within parentheses, and a footnote explains that these are the mass numbers of the longest-lived isotope of the element that is known.
What different numbers isotopes elements contain?
A rule doesn't exist; the number of isotopes is a characteristic for each chemical element. Isotopes are stable or unstable, radioactive.
Different isotopes of the same element have different numbers of what?
different isotopes of the same element have different numbers of what?
How the elements of isotopes are alike and how they are different?
Elements can exist in the form of different isotopes. Isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons in their nuclei but have different numbers of neutrons. The first gives them the same atomic number and chemical properties while the second gives them different atomic weights.
How many neutrons does cobalt have?
Most elements have different isotopes, with different numbers of neutrons. Once source to get more information about the cobalt isotopes is the Wikipedia article on Cobalt - look for the section on isotopes.
Can elements contain only one type of atom?
This may be a matter of how the word atom is defined. Most elements have isotopes which have different numbers of neutrons in an otherwise identical atom. So, if isotopes are different types of atoms then elements can have more than one type of atom. If isotopes are not different types of atoms then elements can only have one type of atom.
What same mass numbers do isotopes have?
Mass numbers of isotopes are different.
