Wrong! For example we take on hydrogen atom which has 1 proton in his nucleus and one electron 'gravitating'(gravitating is not an appropriate word because of the quantum origin of all elementary particles, as they can be expressed both either parcitle if they are observed, or a wave) In nature there is a "heavy" atom of hydrogen which is called deuterium. It has 1 proton and 1 neutron in its nucleus. There are 3 types of hydrogen atoms known. The pattern is the same for almost all elements.

Do all of the atoms of the same element have the same number of neutrons?

Yes, all atoms of the same element have the same number of neutrons.


Are atoms of the same element that have the same number of protons but have different number of neutrons?

Isotopes are atoms of the same element, having the same number of protons but different number of neutrons.


Do all atoms of the same element contain the same number of netrons?

No, atoms of the same element have the same number of protons. Atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons are called isotopes.


What are atoms that have the same element but different neutrons?

IsotopesThe number of protons in the nucleus of an atom determines the element. The number of neutrons can vary. If two atoms of the same element have a different number of neutrons in their nuclei, they are isotopes of that element.


Do all atomes of the same element have the same number of neutrons?

Yes, all atoms of the same element have the same number of neutrons.


What element has the same number of neutrons and protons?

Atoms having the same number of protons and neutrons make up the same element.


When can atoms of the same element vary in the number of?

Atoms of the same element can vary in the number of neutrons they have, resulting in different isotopes of that element. Isotopes have the same number of protons and electrons, but a different number of neutrons, which affects their atomic mass.


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.


An element is composed of atoms with the same number of?

Neutrons.


Do all atoms of an element have the same number of neutrons?

NO.


Do the nuclei of all atoms of a given element always have the same number of neutrons?

No - different isotopes of an element have different numbers of neutrons. All atoms of an element will have the same number of protons.


Which atoms that are same element and have the same number of protons but have different number of neutrons?

Isotopes are atoms of the same element with the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons. An example is carbon-12 and carbon-14, which both have six protons but differ in the number of neutrons they possess.
