Why do all atoms have a different number of protons?
Dear questioner,As an answer to your question I should mention there are atoms which have the same number of protons but are considered different. These atoms are called Isotopes. Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons but the number of Neutrons are not the same. Isotopes have the same chemical virtues but in the physical virtues related to mass they are a bit different.
Elements in living things?
Mostly COHN : carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen. Everything else is just trace elements.
non examples of an ion?
Pure elements. Isotopes. Atoms.
How do atoms show unity and diversity?
Atoms form millions of molecules
What are the differences among the different elements?
The chemical nature of an element is determined (mainly) by the electronic configuration in the outermost shells. However, most elements have isotopes - atomic configurations that have the same outer shells, but which may have a different number of neutrons in the atom core. This gives them the same chemical nature, but a different mass. Many isotopes are unstable in the long run - they will spontaneously disintegrate.
What isotopes are atoms of the same elements with different number of?
Isotopes are atoms of the same elements with different number of neutrons.
Where can isotopes be found?
elements are isotopes, when different atoms of the same element have different number of neutrons
Why the mass number of the same atom of an element is not constant?
Since you have isotopes of elements. Isotopes are elements with different number of neutrons hence why the different atomic masses for the same elements.
Do different elements have a different number isotopes?
Yes, it is true.
Isotopes of uncharged elements have different numbers of?
Isotopes differ in the number of neutrons they possess.
What isotopes of uncharded elements have different numbers?
The atomic number of the isotopes of an element is identical; the mass number is different.
Isotopes of elements?
Uranium has a number of isotopes including U235 and U238, both of which are radioactive
How are isotopes different than naturally occurring elements?
Isotopes of an element have different masses because their nuclei have different numbers of neutrons.
Isotopes of uncharged elements have different number of what?
nuetrons
Two atoms of same elements with different masses?
s
What do elements of isotopes have differently?
Because of the difference in mass number. Isotopes must have different numbers of neutrons.
How the elements of isotopes are alike and how they are different?
Elements can exist in the form of different isotopes. Isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons in their nuclei but have different numbers of neutrons. The first gives them the same atomic number and chemical properties while the second gives them different atomic weights.
