Answer this question… The number of neutrons
This question is misguided. Atoms do not have isotopes. In a sample of an element there are many atoms. They will all have the same number of protons in their nuclei, that's what makes them the same element. Individual atoms may have different numbers of neutrons, if this happens they are called isotopes. For instance in silver, all the atoms have 47 protons, but some of them have 60 neutrons and some have 62. We say that silver has two stable isotopes. Perhaps your question should be 'Do all atoms of the same element have the same number of neutrons?'
The number of protons in the nucleus is the same for both isotopes since they are of the same element. Isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons (which determines the element) but a different number of neutrons, leading to a difference in atomic mass.
Isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons in their nucleus (atomic number), but a different number of neutrons. This means they have the same chemical properties but may have different physical properties due to their mass difference.
Basically,there are two things that make 2 atoms isotopes 1: there atomic number should be same(Number of protons/electrons should be the same) 2:there mass number (i.e number of neutrons+protons) should be the same. Hope this helps
They are isotopes. They are the same element with a different amount of nuetrons, which can be determined depending upon the atomic mass and the atomic number, which results in the changed atomic mass.
Isotopes must have the same atomic number, which is the number of protons. The atomic mass, which is the total number of protons and neutrons, varies for the different isotopes. so it should have different mass numbers..

Dear questioner,As an answer to your question I should mention there are atoms which have the same number of protons but are considered different. These atoms are called Isotopes. Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons but the number of Neutrons are not the same. Isotopes have the same chemical virtues but in the physical virtues related to mass they are a bit different.
Isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons in their nucleus (atomic number), but a different number of neutrons. This means they have the same chemical properties but may have different physical properties due to their mass difference.

An isotope is defined as: Each of two or more forms of the same element that contain equal numbers of protons but different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei, and hence differ in relative atomic mass but not in chemical properties; in particular, a radioactive form of an element So basically, an isotope is from the same place (element) and has the same number of protons, but the number of electrons differ. So isotopes are not subatomic; the protons and electrons that make an isotope are subatomic.
How do you calculate percent abundance of an isotope?You find the isotope number and then you calculate that into a fraction and then turn the fraction into a percentage and divide it by the atomic number then times it by the mass and turn that answer into a percent and voila, there you have it.
Just as with any other element, tin has different isotopes, each with a different number of neutrons. Depending on the isotope, a tin atom can have between 49 and 87 neutrons. For more details, read the Wikipedia article on "isotopes of tin". If you don't know what an "isotope" is, you should read the article on "Isotopes" first.
The question should not be, what element, but what isotope. Several easily fissible isotopes are used, such as Uranium-235. But note that the element Uranium as such is not usable - only that specific isotope.
It was then changed to "All atoms of the same element contain the same number of protons and electrons, but atoms of a given element may have different numbers of neutrons." after James Chadwick discovered that the nuclei of most atoms contain neutrons as well as protons.
