Which elements have different isotopes?
Many elements have different isotopes: 1) Carbon - Carbon 12, Carbon 14 2) Hydrogen - Protium, Deuterium, Tritium 3) Chlorine - Chlorine 35, Chlorine 37 etc
How many isotopes of elements x exist?
Different elements have between 0 and 10 naturally occurring isotopes, and between about 3 and 25 if you also include artificially prepared and characterized ones.
Which is more the number of elements or the number of isotopes?
The number of elements is more than the number of isotopes. There are 118 known elements on the periodic table, while each element can have multiple isotopes with varying numbers of neutrons. The number of isotopes per element can range from a few to dozens, depending on the element.
What is the range of the numbers of isotopes chemical elements have?
Chemical elements have between 3 and 36 isotopes. The element with the smallest number of isotopes, 3, is hydrogen (H). The elements that have the greatest possible number of isotopes, 36, are xenon (Xe) and cesium (Cs).
Why do the isotopes of hydrogen have a greater ratio of mass difference than the ratios for any other isotopes of other elements?
The isotopes of hydrogen have a greater ratio of mass difference because hydrogen has the smallest atomic mass compared to other elements. Since the mass of hydrogen isotopes differs significantly (H-1, H-2, and H-3), the ratio of their mass difference is also relatively larger. This makes the difference in mass between hydrogen isotopes more pronounced compared to isotopes of other elements, which have higher atomic masses.
Two atoms are isotopes if they contain?
Isotopes are atoms of the same element which differ in the number of neutrons they contain. For example, helium-3 (3He), with two protons and one neutron in each nucleus, and helium-4 (4He), with two protons and two neutrons, are two different isotopes of helium. Nearly all elements found in nature are mixtures of several different isotopes. Although the chemical properties of isotopes of the same element are the same, the physical properties differ. The natural proportions of the isotopes are expressed in the form of an abundance ratio.
Name 3 radioactive metals?
Most elements - metals and non-metals - have both stable and radioactivie isotopes. If an element is a type of atom, an isotope is something like a "sub-type". Two isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons, but a different number of neutrons.Most elements - metals and non-metals - have both stable and radioactivie isotopes.

How many neutrons are in an atom with an atomic number of 3?
The elemnt with atomic number 3 is Lithium. There is no easy way of determining how many neutrons are in an atom, in Lithium there are two stable isotopes, 6Li with 3 neutrons and 7Li with 4. The most common is 7Li. If you ever have to guess because you dont have access to Wikipedia or a table of the elements which shows the different isotopes, there are often the same number of neutrons as protons in stable isotopes.
What particles are isotopes of each other?
== == Atoms of the same element with different number of neutrons are called isotopes. See related links below for more information.
How many chemical elements are found till now?
Now are known 118 chemical elements (natural or artificial) with more than 3 100 isotopes.
Are hydrogen-3 and helium -3 isotopes of the same element?
No, hydrogen-3 (tritium) and helium-3 are not isotopes of the same element. Hydrogen-3 is an isotope of hydrogen, while helium-3 is an isotope of helium. They have different numbers of protons and neutrons in their nuclei, giving them distinct chemical and physical properties.
Can two isotopes of different elements have the same mass number?
Yes, as an example carbon-14 and nitrogen-14 are two isotopes of different elements with the same mass number. Other examples include hydrogen-3 and helium-3, argon-40, calcium-40, and potassium-40 iron-58 and nickel-58 are both stable isotopes. Potassium-40 is an interesting radioisotope that decays to argon-40 by beta decay. This decay path is used to put dates on ancient objects. Calcium-40 is a stable isotope. Hydrogen-3 emits a beta particle and thence decays to helium-3. Helium-3 is the only nontrivial stable isotope that has fewer neutrons than it has protons. Nitrogen-14 is the most common isotope in the Universe that has and odd number of protons and an odd number of neutrons. It is more common than hydrogen-2 or lithium-6. Beryllium-9 is the only stable isotope of an element -- that only has one stable isotope -- that has an even number of protons (4) and an odd number of neutrons (5).
