Which is not unique to each element?
Although the number of protons in the nuclei of the atoms of an element is constant, the number of neutrons varies in general. For instance, hydrogen comes in three forms, known as isotopes, one with no neutrons in its nucleus, one with one neutron and one isotope with two neutrons in its nucleus.
Whow do isotopes differ from each other?
The definitive statement is 'Isotopes of an element have a different number of neutrons'. Taking hydrogen as an example. It has three isotopes;- #1 ; protium ; 1 proton, 0 neutrons, 1 electron ( The commonest isotope) #2 ; deuterium ; 1 proton, 1 neutron, 1 electron ( also known as heavy hydrogen) #3 ; tritium ; 1 proton , 2 neutrons, 1 electron ( radio-active; and also known as super heavy hydrogen). Note in each case the different number of neutrons.
The various atomic weights of the same element are called?
Atoms of the same element with different atomic masses are known as isotopes. Isotopes differ only by the number of neutrons present in the nucleus of the isotopes. The number of protons is the same for all isotopes of an element (because if there were different numbers of protons, then the atoms would not be of the same element).
Is it true or false that isotopes are forms of an element that have the same number of protons but a different number of electrons?
false they have the same number of protons, but varying numbers of neutrons
Why do atoms of the same element always have the same atomic number but have different mass numbers?
An isotope is an atom that has different numbers of neutrons compared to its protons. So each variation of neutron numbers will give it a different mass number, but will still retain its atomic number.
Who many protons and neutrons in the element of hydrogen?
The most common form of Hydrogen, forming more than 99.9% of all hydrogen atoms in the universe, (sometimes known as Hydrogen-1) has one proton in the nucleus and one electron ( with no neutrons ). There are, however, other forms (isotopes) of hydrogen that can be stable, such as Hydrogen-2 ( also known as deuterium ), which has one neutron and one proton in the nucleus as well as one electron.

Atoms of the same element with different atomic masses are known as isotopes. Isotopes differ only by the number of neutrons present in the nucleus of the isotopes. The number of protons is the same for all isotopes of an element (because if there were different numbers of protons, then the atoms would not be of the same element).
How are isotopes and the number of electrons related?
Before we tackle isotopes and neutrons, lets talk about protons. The number of protons in an atom determines the elemental identity of the atom. Only that. Now to the question. Atoms of a given element have a specific number of protons in the nucleus, but can have a modest variety of numbers of neutrons in their nuclei. Let's look at hydrogen. Hydrogen is identified by the fact that there is a single proton in the nucleus. Most hydrogen is just that. But some hydrogen has a neutron stuck to the one proton in the nucleus. This creates another "flavor" of hydrogen. It's another isotope of hydrogen. We have the original isotope of hydrogen (with one proton and no neutron) and the isotope with the one proton and one neutron. Now we look at the last and most unusual isotope of hydrogen. It has the one proton and two neutrons. Hydrogen has three isotopes, and each has the same number of protons (each isotope is hydrogen) and each has a different number of neutrons: zero, one and two. Heavier elements have varying numbers of neutrons in combinations with there protons. This creates a number of different isotopes for each and every element. It is the variable numbers of neutrons that can hang out with the protons in a given element's nucleus that give rise to the different isotopes of that element. Our friends at Wikipedia have some details. A link is provided.

How many protons and neutrons does sulfur has of the net charge is -2?
S2- ion has 16 protons in the nucleus and 18 electrons around the nucleus. The number of neutrons in the nucleus depends on the isotopic mass of the Sulphur ion because there are over 20 known Sulphur isotopes, which are the same element with different number of neutrons.
Why do atoms of the same element always have the same atomic number but have different mass numbers?
An isotope is an atom that has different numbers of neutrons compared to its protons. So each variation of neutron numbers will give it a different mass number, but will still retain its atomic number.
Why do different atoms of the same the same element have the same atomic number but different mass numbers?
The atomic number of an element tells you how many protons an atom has in it's nucleus, and each element is defined by the number of protons it has. For example hydrogen always has 1 proton. The Mass number tells you how many protons and neutrons there are in an atom. However it is possible for an element to have different numbers of neutrons in the nucleus. When this occurs you will get different masses for the same element but the same atomic number. Two (or more) elements are known as isotopes if the only difference between them is the number of neutrons. Probably the most common/well known example of an isotope is Hydrogen, Deuterium (Hydrogen with a neutron) and Tritium (Hydrogen with 2 neutrons)

What are the forms of hydrogen?
There are three forms of Hydrogen (these are known as isotopes). These are normal hydrogen, deuterium and tritium.
Atoms of the same elements that differ only in the number of neutrons are known as?
Atoms of the same element that have different numbers of neutrons are called isotopes. An isotope is known by its mass number, which is the sum of the protons and neutrons in its nucleus.
