An atom of an element having the same number of protons (as well as electrons) but a different number of neutrons is known as an isotope. Isotopes are often used in the nuclear power industry. An example of an industry is "heavy water" or Deuterium Oxide. It is water but with and isotope of hydrogen that has 2 extra neutrons. The isotope is called Deuterium, and heavy water is also sometimes known as D2O.
They are ions of each other.
If 2 electrons were added to an oxygen (o) atom, what would be the new electrical charge?
There are called isotopes.

Two atoms with the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons are called "isotopes".
The number of protons is equal to the number of electrons and the atomic number. The number of neutrons is different for each isotope (number of neutrons = atomic mass of the isotope [or mass number] - number of protons).
No, atomic number equals the number of protons.The number of neutrons is NOT specific to an element, and various atoms of the same element can have different numbers of neutrons - these are called isotopes.
Meitnerium has 109 protons and electrons.For each isotope of Mt the number of neutrons is different. Number of neutrons = Mass number of an Mt isotope - 109
mass number = protons + nuetrons
Atoms which have different number of protons and neutrons but have the same molecular weight are called Isobars.
Two atoms with the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons are called "isotopes".
Atoms of the same element cannot have different numbers of protons. Different numbers of protons mean different elements. An atom with the a different number of neutrons is called an isotope.

It is called an isotope.
The number protons in an atom is called the atomic number (it is this number that tells us which element the atom is). The number of neutrons in an atom can change, but the term for the amount of neutrons is called an isotope. The number of protons and neutrons added together is called the atomic mass.
All isotopes of radium have the same number of protons; the number of neutrons is different.
They are called isotopes.
The symbol is Ba. The number of neutrons equal the number of protons.
no there are different elements, and you can check a periodic table for more information.
