The atoms may be slightly different in shape or size etc. however if they are all of the same type they will all behave and react in the same way. Eg. Two atoms of Frankium may be different in the ways I have described but their chemical properties, behaviour and reactivity are the same.

What was john daltons contribution to the atomic theory?

He said that atoms can not be divided; in one matter all the atoms are of same kind,same mass and same type. He also said that different matters have different kinds of atoms. He furthermore said that atoms from different matters meet together at a particular rate and make molecules.

What are atoms with the same atomic number but different mass called?

Atoms with the same atomic number are all atoms of the same element. However, if the atoms have different molecular weights, they are isotopes of the same element.

Are all sample of elements are composed of atoms with same atomic mass?

All atoms in a pure sample of one element have the same mass. The atoms in a different element have a different mass. Different atoms is what makes different elements.

All the atoms have the same number of protons (element type).


Why do all atoms of an element have the same chemical prperties?

Because they are all the same type of atoms. Oxygen is an element. If you have 10 oxygen atoms, they will all behave like oxygen, since they are the same element.
