I think this either a trick question or a mistyping.
An element always has the same number of protons, i.e. the same atomic number. What can vary are the number of NEUTRONS which give rise ti different isotopes of the element.
Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons but differing numbers of neutrons in the nucleus.
Isotopesare variants of atoms of a particular chemical element, which have differing numbers of neutrons. Atoms of a particular element by definition must contain the same number of protons but may have a distinct number of neutrons which differs from atom to atom, without changing the designation of the atom as a particular element.
They are called as isotopes of the given element.
isotopes are atoms of the same element, having same atomic number but different atomic masses due to the difference in the number of neutrons presentIsotopes are atoms that have differing numbers of neutrons, but the same number of protons.
The mass number of an element is equal to the number of protons in the nucleus, and this always determines the element in the Periodic Table. Different isotopes of the same element have differing numbers of neutrons in the nucleus, but always the same number of protons.
The elements with the highest atomic numbers have the greatest numbers of protons in their nucleus, because that is the definition of atomic number.
NO. Isotopes are forms of an element that have the same numbers of protons and electrons, but differing numbers of neutrons. For example Helium-3 has two protons, two electrons, and one neutron and Helium-4 has two protons, two electrons, and two neutrons.A form of an element that has a different number of electrons than the number of protons is an "ion".
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.
Two atoms with the same number of protons are not two elements but one element. If they have differing numbers of neutrons, however, they are said to be of different isotopes.
No because the number of protons never changes or else the element changes.
If the number of protons changes so does the element, as the number of protons defines the element.
By definition, the number of protons in the atoms of an element is the atomic number of the element.
