What differentiates isotopes of nitrogen from the element?

These isotopes have a different number of neutrons.


What are the isotopes of the element Q?

The element Q doesn't exist.


A scientist conducts a procedure that causes Nitrogen atoms to gain neutrons the resulting atoms will be A. Ions of Nitrogen B. Isotopes of Nitrogen?

B. Isotopes of Nitrogen. Isotopes are atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons. In this case, the resulting atoms will be isotopes of nitrogen because they have gained neutrons.


Is oxygen 16 and nitrogen 16 isotopes of each other?

No, they are isotopes with the same atomic mass. But they are isotopes of different elements and so are very different from on another. For example nitrogen-16 and nitrogen-14 are isotopes of the same element.


How does nitrogen-14 and nitrogen-15 are isotopes of the same element?

They have the same number of protons in the atomic nucleus.


Are carbon and nitrogen isotopes of each other?

Carbon and nitrogen isotopes are not isotopes of each other. They are different elements with their own set of isotopes. Carbon isotopes include carbon-12, carbon-13, and carbon-14, while nitrogen isotopes include nitrogen-14 and nitrogen-15.


Do isotopes exist independently to form an element or do all the isotopes when combined constitute an element?

The ratio of isotopes are constant throughout the universe. In any random sample of any element, there will be a consistent ratio of isotopes of that element. This is what makes radiocarbon dating of ancient organic material possible.


What element is in making explosives?

Most common is nitrogen.


Nitrogen-14 and nitrogen-15 are isotopes of the same element. How do these isotopes?

Nitrogen-14 has 7 protons, 7 electrons, and 7 neutrons. Nitrogen-15 has 7 protons, 7 electrons and 8 neutrons. So, the only way they differ is in the NUMBER OF NEUTRONS.


How are isotopes different from state atoms?

The atoms of a chemical element can exist in different types. These are called isotopes. They have the same number of protons (and electrons), but different numbers of neutrons. Different isotopes of the same element have different masses.


What is half life of nitrogen?

The natural isotopes of nitrogen are stable; for the synthetic radioactive isotopes of nirogen see the link below.


Do all isotopes only occur in heavier elements?

No, isotopes of light elements exist as well. For example, there are several isotopes of the lightest element, hydrogen.No, even the lightest element (hydrogen (H)) has isotopes. These are called Deuterium and Tritium.All elements have isotopes but some of them are very unstable and have disappeared in nature over time.
