The number of electrons in isotopes is identical.
Chemical reactions involve electrons - not protons or neutrons. All isotopes of the same element have an identical number of electrons (just the number of neutrons differs) and hence the chemical properties are identical/very similar.
Chemical properties of a element is governed by ELECTRONIC CONFIGURATION of that element. As isotopes of same element have identical electronic configurations, their chemical properties are same.
The number of protons and electrons is identical.
All the isotopes of a chemical element are identical; some differences exist for light elements (ex. H or D).
For the same element, isotopes have equal numbers of protons but different numbers of neutrons. Isotopes of a given element have similar chemical properties due to having the same number of electrons, which determines an element's chemical behavior.
Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons, which determines their chemical properties. It is the arrangement of electrons, which is determined by the number of protons, that governs an element's chemical behavior. Therefore, isotopes of an element exhibit the same chemical properties.
Isotopes contribute to the atomic weight of a chemical element.
chemical properties
All isotopes of the same element have the same chemical properties due to the following reasons: * they all have the same electrons in the OUTERMOST shell. * they all have the same electronic configuration.
The chemical properties of an element depend on its electron configuration, which is in turn determined by the number of protons. Isotopes of an element differ in the number of neutrons, which, being neutral, have not influence on chemical properties.
The identity of a chemical element is given by the number of protons.
Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons, which determines the element's chemical properties. The differing number of neutrons in isotopes does not significantly affect the element's chemical behavior.
