What do isotopes and nucleus have in common?
All the isotopes of a chemical element have the same atomic number, number of protons and number of neutrons.

Masses.
Isotopes of hydrogen differ in what?
Isotopes (of hydrogen) differ in the number of neutrons in the nucleus of the atoms.
Atoms of same chemical element that have different atomic mass are known as?
Isotopes. They differ in the number of neutrons in the nucleus.
What do isotopes and nucleus have in common?
All the isotopes of a chemical element have the same atomic number, number of protons and number of neutrons.
Do isotopes have a nucleus?
Yes. Isotopes are simply normal elements with a different number of constituent neutrons in their nucleus. All isotopes have a nucleus with an identical number of protons to its element.

Does isotopes of elements differ in the number of neutrons in the nucleus?
yes
How would you describe the nucleus of sodium?
A nucleus having 11 protons and 12 neutrons is a sodium nucleus, no of neutrons may differ in case of isotopes.
What is the relationship between isotopes and nucleus?
An isotope has either more or fewer neutrons than a stable atom, and neutrons are part of the nucleus.
Where are protons and neutrons of an atom contained?
The nucleus of an atom contains protons and neutrons. Different amount of neutrons- Isotopes. Different amount of protons- Different element.
What is the major difference among isotopes of an element?
Number of neutrons in the nucleus.
