The definitive answer is 'Isotopes have a different numbers of neutrons'.

Taking hydrogen as an example. Iy has three isotopes.

#1 ; protium ; 1 proto and 1 electron 0 neutrons (The commonest isotope)

#2 ; deuterium ; 1 proton , 1 electrons 1 neutron. (Used to make ;heavy water')

#3 ; tritium ; 1 proton , 1 electron, and 2(TWO) neutrons. (Very rare and radio-active).

Are the Isotopes are atoms of the same element with the same number of protons and?

The isotopes of an element have the same number of protons, but different numbers of neutrons.


Isotopes of the same element have the same chemical properties because they have the same number of?

...electrons.Isotopes contain the same number of protons (hence, the same number of electrons) and electrons are what determine reactivity. 2nd answer : The isotopes have the same chemical properties because the electronic configuration of an element is same there fore isotopes posses the same chemical properties .


What atoms with same atomic number but different atomic masses?

Isotopes are atoms with the same number of protons (same atomic number) but different numbers of neutrons, leading to different atomic masses. For example, carbon-12 and carbon-14 are isotopes of carbon with atomic number 6 but atomic masses of 12 and 14 respectively.


What are Atoms that vary in the number of neutrons found in their nuclei called?

Atoms that vary in the number of neutrons found in their nuclei are called isotopes. Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons, which can lead to variations in their atomic mass.


What are element that differ in the number of neutrons known as?

Isotopes are elements that differ in the number of neutrons they have. Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons in their nuclei but different numbers of neutrons, resulting in varying atomic weights.

Isotopes can have the same what?

Isotopes of an element have the same numbers of protons in the nucleus (and corresponding electrons). It's not so much "can have", as "do have". It's just a different number of neutrons that makes a different isotope.


How are isotopes the same but different?

Isotopes are different forms of the same element which have different numbers of neutrons in their atomic nuclei. A given element is identified by the number of protons in its nucleus; that's its atomic number. Two different isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons, but each has a different number of neutrons in its nucleus. Different isotopes of the same element are chemically the same.
