Best Answer

Atomic Mass increases with the ordered placement of the element of the Periodic Table. Conveniently, the number of protons, nuetrons and electrons also increase with numbered order on the table. Every element is assigned a number. This number is equal to the number of protons, nuetrons and electrons. I believe it's the nuetrons that make up the mass of the element, but not sure!

No matter what the element is, an element always has a number of protons equal to the element's atomic number. Any more or less, and it is a completely different element.

No the number of isotopes has nothing to do with the number of Protons present in the element, the number of protons is always in a fix number in each atom of the element. It is the number of newtrons that vary in the isotopes of any element.

An isotope of an element differs from the base element in the number of neutrons it possesses. As the mass increases or decreases, the number of protons remains constant.

The isotopes of an element have the same number of protons, but different numbers of neutrons.


Why are there not isotopes with unusual numbers of protons?

If the number of protons changes so does the element, as the number of protons defines the element.

Isotopes can have the same what?

Isotopes of an element have the same numbers of protons in the nucleus (and corresponding electrons). It's not so much "can have", as "do have". It's just a different number of neutrons that makes a different isotope.

What are elements with identical number for protons and different number of neutrons called?

The answer you are looking for is "isotopes" HOWEVER, please note you CAN NOT HAVE 2 elements with the same number of PROTONS. This is because the number of protons DEFINES an element. Isotopes are the SAME element but with differing numbers of neutrons.


Isotopes of the same element have differnt?

Different numbers of neutrons and hence different physical properties.


What are different types of the same element called?

If an atom of the same element has the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons, then they are isotopes.


Isotopes of a given element have what?

An isotope has same number of protons but a different number of neutrons as the original element in the atomic nucleus; it has the same atomic number as the element which isn't an isotope, but will have a different mass number. -atomic number


How are isotopes the same but different?

Isotopes are different forms of the same element which have different numbers of neutrons in their atomic nuclei. A given element is identified by the number of protons in its nucleus; that's its atomic number. Two different isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons, but each has a different number of neutrons in its nucleus. Different isotopes of the same element are chemically the same.
