Same number of protons, but different numbers of neutrons.
These isotopes are unstable and disintegrate emitting radiations.
The characteristic of an element that represents the average mass of its isotopes is called the atomic mass. Atomic mass takes into account the abundance of each isotope of the element and is typically listed on the periodic table as a weighted average.
The characteristic stated in the question is a property of particular isotopes, not of all atoms of any particular element. The lightest such isotopes are hydrogen-2 (also called deuterium), helium-4, lithium-6, beryllium-8, boron-10, etc. The specified characteristic is true for any isotope with a mass number equal to twice its atomic number.
Isotopes. They differ in the number of neutrons in the nucleus.
they are known as isotopes. Dont ask people to do your homework
Both isotopes and radioactive isotopes are pretty much the same but radioactive isotopes are better because it can be used to make medicine.
Parent isotopes are typically unstable and have excess energy, making them more likely to undergo radioactive decay to achieve a more stable state. Additionally, parent isotopes often have a longer half-life compared to their daughter isotopes.
The answer for isotopes is 259
Differences between uranium isotopes: natural isotopes (U-234, U-235, U-238) and the artificial isotopes; differences in atomic mass; differences in the number of neutrons; differences of the half life; differences in the emitted radiations (type, energy, percentage); differences in the decay chain; differences in the technological importance; etc.
No most of them are not isotopes. Few elements exist as isotopes.
- Isotopes are used as sources of radiation in medicine, sterilization, nondestructive control, etc.- Isotopes can be used as tracers- Isotopes can be used as energy source- Isotopes are used for radioactive dating- Isotopes are used in chemical analysis- Isotopes are used in many instruments- Isotopes are used as source of nuclear energy in bombs and nuclear reactorsetc.
Seaborgium has 12 isotopes; for the list of isotopes see the link below.
