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).

What kind of compounds do elements make when the combine?
The entire range of chemical compounds available in the universe
What are Bariums isotopes?
They range from Ba-130 to Ba-138.
What are the properties of uranium?
Chemical properties: All of its isotopes are radioactive. It has a wide range of oxidation states. It is flammable and pyrophoric when finely divided. Physical properties: It is silvery black in color. It is the only element having naturally occurring isotopes than can support a nuclear fission chain reaction.
What is created when two or more kinds of elements are chemically bonded?
That's a compound. The bonds can either be covalent, ionic... there are a range.
Why can you only get certain amounts of isotopes such as hydrogen having none or 1 or 2 neutrons and not 3 or above?
heavier isotopes can be produces but their halflives are in the microsecond or shorter range.
Isotopes are atoms of an element with identical chemical properties but with different?
What differentiates isotopes between the same elements are their neutron (n) count. For example, all Uranium atoms contain 92-protons, which also is its atomic number. However, its 25 isotopes range from 217 to 242 neutrons.
What are atoms of the same element that have different neutron numbers called?
Every atom of the same element is also categorized by its number of neutrons. An atom with a certain number of neutrons is an "isotope." Two atoms of the same element (same quantity of protons) can be different isotopes (different quantity of neutrons). Some isotopes are unstable, so most stable isotopes of an element are withing a range of a few numbers. For example, stable isotopes of carbon are Carbon-12 and Carbon-13.

What chemical changes oxygen into energy?
Oxygen is not changed into energy. However, energy may be released when it combines with a range of other chemical compounds and elements.
What is the total number of isotopes in platinum?
Platinum has six naturally occurring isotopes. They range from 190 to 196 in atomic mass. There are 31 synthetic isotopes in platinum that range from 166 to 202 in atomic mass.
What is the range of the radii of most atoms in nanometers(nm)?
The atomic radii of most chemical elements are in the range 75-250 pm or 0,075-0,25 nm.
What is radioactivity number?
There is no such thing. There are elements with isotopes that have different atomic weights and these decay [radioactively] into daughter elements which will also have a range of atomic weights. There is also the half-life, which is a measure of the time before half the atoms in a lump of a substance have decayed.
Do non metals have a wide range of chemical properties?
Yes, nonmetals (excepting noble gases) are reactive chemical elements.
What is the fastest decaying element?
Many elements decay fast. All the elements after 92 are man made and decay, and all the ones over 104 decay rapidly, some with a half-life in the millionths of a second. Element 118, ununoctium, has a half-life of 0.89 mili-seconds.
What are Bariums isotopes?
They range from Ba-130 to Ba-138.

Chemical properties: All of its isotopes are radioactive. It has a wide range of oxidation states. It is flammable and pyrophoric when finely divided. Physical properties: It is silvery black in color. It is the only element having naturally occurring isotopes than can support a nuclear fission chain reaction.
What is lathanides?
Lanthanides?ærefers to the series of chemical elements that comprise the fifteen metallic chemical elements with atomic number 57 through 71. These elements are known as the rare earth elements.
