All atoms of a specific element have the same number of protons in their nucleus, but the number of neutrons in the nucleus may vary these are isotopes of that element.
Hydrogen has several possible isotopes, only the first three of these are commonly referred to:
- hydrogen or protium or hydrogen-1, 1 proton 0 neutrons, stable
- deuterium or hydrogen-2, 1 proton 1 neutron, stable
- tritium or hydrogen-3, 1 proton 2 neutrons, radioactive halflife 12.26 years
- hydrogen-4, 1 proton 3 neutrons, radioactive halflife about 139 yoctoseconds
- hydrogen-5, 1 proton 4 neutrons, radioactive halflife about 910 yoctoseconds
- hydrogen-6, 1 proton 5 neutrons, radioactive halflife 290 yoctoseconds
- hydrogen-7, 1 proton 6 neutrons, radioactive halflife 23 yoctoseconds
- etc.

Isotopes of hydrogen differ in what?
Isotopes (of hydrogen) differ in the number of neutrons in the nucleus of the atoms.
Does the atomic number change in the three isotopes of hydrogen?
No the atomic number is same for the three isotopes of hydrogen (it is 1). The three isotopes of hydrogen differ by the number of neutrons.
