What isotopes are atoms of the same elements with different number of?

Isotopes are atoms of the same elements with different number of neutrons.


What are the differences in isotopes of the same elements?

Isotopes are forms of the same element that differ in Neutrons.


Isotopes of elements?

Isotopes of elements are atoms with the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons. This causes isotopes of the same element to have different atomic masses. Isotopes can be stable or unstable, with unstable isotopes undergoing radioactive decay.


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.


Isotopes of the same elements differ in number of?

Neutrons


Isotopes of the same elements differ in their number of?

neutrons


Where can isotopes be found?

elements are isotopes, when different atoms of the same element have different number of neutrons


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.


How do scientist tell the different between two isotopes of the same element?

scientists Can tell the difference between two isotopes of the same element because, isotopes of the same elements always have the same number of protons.


What do two different neutral Isotopes have the same elements in common?

The proton and electron number are equal for all isotopes of the same specific element.


Why isotopes of the same element are not considered different elements?

Isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons, which is what defines an element. The only difference between isotopes is the number of neutrons in the nucleus. Since isotopes of an element have the same chemical properties, they are not considered different elements.


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
