Do all the atoms of a particular elements have the same number of neutrons?

No, the isotopes of a single element differ in the no. of neutrons


Why do nuclei of some atoms of the same elements differ in their number of neutrons?

Because of isotopes


Do all elements of the periodic table have the same type of atoms?

No. Atoms differ in number of protons, neutrons and electrons.


Atoms of the same elements that differ only in the number of neutrons are known as?

Atoms of the same element that have different numbers of neutrons are called isotopes. An isotope is known by its mass number, which is the sum of the protons and neutrons in its nucleus.


What are element that differ in the number of neutrons known as?

Isotopes are elements that differ in the number of neutrons they have. Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons in their nuclei but different numbers of neutrons, resulting in varying atomic weights.


Neutral atoms of the same element can differ in their number of what?

Neutrons. If the differ in electrons they are not neutral and if they differ in protons then they are no longer the same element as the number of protons determines the name of the element.


How do you find the number of neutrons in an elements atoms?

number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number


Do atoms have neutrons in them?

Atoms of all elements can have neutrons in them. Only the element hydrogen has an isotope whose atoms do not contain neutrons, but all other isotopes of hydrogen have neutrons in them. In the heavier elements the number of neutrons always exceeds the number of protons in the atom.


Atoms that have the same number of protons but differ in the number of neutrons is what?

Isotopes.


How do the atoms of one element differ from those of another element?

Atoms of different elements differ in their number of protons, which determines the element's identity. Each element has a unique number of protons in its nucleus, leading to distinct chemical properties. Differences in the number of neutrons and electrons can result in isotopes and ions of the same element.


What are atoms that only differ from the number of neutrons in their nuclei?

isotopes
