isotopes have varying amounts of electrons
^ The above is wrong. Isotopes of an element vary in the amounts of neutrons within the nucleus only.

How many protons does 123Sb have?
51, just like all the other isotopes of Antimony. The amount of protons does not change in any of the isotopes of any element. If it were to it would be a different element.
As the number of the isotopes of an element increases the number of protons?
Atomic mass increases with the ordered placement of the element of the periodic table. Conveniently, the number of protons, nuetrons and electrons also increase with numbered order on the table. Every element is assigned a number. This number is equal to the number of protons, nuetrons and electrons. I believe it's the nuetrons that make up the mass of the element, but not sure!
What atomic number of the element lead indicates that each atom of has lead?
82 protons
Atoms of the same element may differ in their number?
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.
Will atoms of the same element have different masses?
In nature things called isotopes exist, when you say there are isotopes of element X that means that element X has the same number of protons and electrons but different number of neutrons (different mass number)... There you have it, two atoms of the same element that have different masses due to difference in the number of neutrons in the nucleus (Isotopes)
Is calcuim a mixture?
Only of isotopes. Calcium is an element. No mixture of chemicals can ever be a single element. The atoms of any element, such as calcium, always have the same number of protons and the same number of electrons. The number of electrons in an atom is the same as the number of protons in that atom. Different Isotopes of an element have different numbers of neutrons in the nucleus, but this doesn't change any of the chemical properties.
How many nutrons does zirconium have?
The number of neutrons for any given element varies, depending on the isotopes. Search the Wikipedia, or Google, for "Isotopes of Zirconium" for the isotopes of this particular element. The list of isotopes will give you the atomic mass (protons + neutrons) for the different isotopes; subtract the atomic number (which is the number of protons) to get the number of neutrons for each isotope.
How different isotopes of the same element element differ?
Differences in IsotopesThey have different numbers of neutrons and therefore different mass numbers.
Which is not true all isotopes of an element have the same number of electrons?
All neutral atoms of an element, including any of its isotopes, always do have the same number of electrons. The existence of isotopes has nothing to do with the number of electrons in an atom. Instead, the number of neutrons varies between isotopes of the same element. The number of electrons varies from that of a neutral atom only if an ion of the element is formed.
How many protons does 123Sb have?
51, just like all the other isotopes of Antimony. The amount of protons does not change in any of the isotopes of any element. If it were to it would be a different element.
How many isotopes can there be in an element?
There is no specific number; each element has another number of natural and artificial isotopes.
How do you calculate the atomic mass of an element with different isotopes?
To calculate average atomic mass from different isotopes of an element, we take into account the relative atomic masses of isotopes and their relative abundance on Earth. The following formula is used to calculate the needful : atomic mass = mass of isotope x percent abundance + mass of isotope x percent abundance / 100 (whole expression divided by 100)
Is it possible for atoms of the same element to have different chemical properties?
Atoms of the same element differ in the number of neutrons in their nuclei. All atoms of a given element have the same number of protons, of course. The number of protons in a nucleus determines which element the atom is. But the number of neutrons can vary, and these different "versions" of a given element are called isotopes of that element. See the related question, which is linked below.
Why do isotopes of the same element have the same chemical behavior?
Chemical properties of a element is governed by ELECTRONIC CONFIGURATION of that element. As isotopes of same element have identical electronic configurations, their chemical properties are same.
As the number of the isotopes of an element increases the number of protons?
Atomic mass increases with the ordered placement of the element of the periodic table. Conveniently, the number of protons, nuetrons and electrons also increase with numbered order on the table. Every element is assigned a number. This number is equal to the number of protons, nuetrons and electrons. I believe it's the nuetrons that make up the mass of the element, but not sure!
What way do isotopes of an element differ?
From Intro AP Chem Knowledge OnlyThe number of neutrons in the nucleus differs, the atomic mass differs, as well as the physical properties and the nuclear stability. The chemical properties remain the same. I do not know about anything beyond that, but that much I'm certain on.I don't know about the above answer but from what I know in Chemistry is that the protons is what makes the isotopes of each element differ and the neutrons. Hope this helpsI think the first answer is correct. The protons do not make any difference. That's from AP Bio knowlege.
What atomic number of the element lead indicates that each atom of has lead?
82 protons
