The specific terms atoms and elements are related in The Atomic Number.
The Element that an Atom belongs to is determined by the number of Protons that are contained within Its atomic nucleus.
The varying number of neutrons [for any given number of protons] that are needed to keep the atomic nucleus held together is what results in the varying Atomic Weight when compared to the Atomic Number.

∙ 11y agoThe difference could be in the proportions of the elements or in the structure of the compounds
There are three iron oxides where the proportions of the elements are different, FeO, Fe2O3, Fe3O4
There are two isomers of butane C4H10 , two structural forms, n-butane and iso-butane.

Wiki User
∙ 14y agoYes, these are called isotopes. Isotopes are when atoms of the same element have a different mass number due to a different number of neutrons.

What are element that differ in the number of neutrons known as?
Atoms of the same element that differ in the number of neutrons they contain are known as isotopes.
All Atoms Of An Element Are Exactly?
All atoms of the same element are not identical. The atoms of same element with different number of neutrons are called as isotopes. Although, the number of protons and electrons are same in every atom.
Is it true that all the atoms of a given element are different from each other?
No. All atoms of the same element have the same number of protons and, when neutral, the same number of electrons. They can, however, differ in the number of neutrons.
Is it true that atoms of the same element have the same number of protons?
Yes, they're the same element, if that is the point of the question. The number of protons (and only that) determines what element the atom will be. Neutron and electron numbers can vary without changing the identity of the element.
How may atoms of the same element differ from one another?
Atoms of the same element may differ from one another by having differing numbers of Neutrons in their centres.
Atoms of the same element that differ in number of neutrons?
isotopes
What is atoms of the same element that differ in the number of neutrons but have the same number of protons?
Isotopes.
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.
What are atoms of the same element but differ in number of neutrons?
They are called isotopes.
What atoms of the same element differ in the number of neutrons?
They are called isotopes.
What is a isotope apex?
Atoms of the same element that differ in number of neutrons
What are element that differ in the number of neutrons known as?
Atoms of the same element that differ in the number of neutrons they contain are known as isotopes.
Elements that differ in mass number are?
Such atoms are isotopes and belong to the same element.
All Atoms Of An Element Are Exactly?
All atoms of the same element are not identical. The atoms of same element with different number of neutrons are called as isotopes. Although, the number of protons and electrons are same in every atom.
Is it true that all the atoms of a given element are different from each other?
No. All atoms of the same element have the same number of protons and, when neutral, the same number of electrons. They can, however, differ in the number of neutrons.
Can atoms of the same element differ in atomic number?
no. elements are defined by their atomic number (the number of protons).
Do atoms of the same element differ in chemical properties?
No. Atoms of the same element have the same chemical properties.
