Atoms of the same element have different isotopes, differing only in number of neutrons (so differing in mass number, atomic mass).
isotopes
Atomic weight of fluorine = 6,022 141 78.1023 (Avogadro number) . 266,889 (the mass of atoms)/8,46.1024 (the number of atoms). The IUPAC 2005 atomic weight of fluorine is 18,998 403 2(5).
We can find atomic mass and mass number in chemical elements. Atomic mass is about weight of the atom. Mass number is about total of neutrons and protons.
If they have the same atomic number but different mass, then they have a different number of neutrons, and they are called ISOTOPES.
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.
is a phenomenom whereby atoms of the same compound have the same atomic number but different mass number
ion
yes. Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons, thus electorns, thus the same chemical properties. Where isotpes differ is in the number of neutrons. Consider hydrogen, atomic number 1, atomic weight 1, 1 proton, 1 electron vs duterium, atomic number 1 atomic weight 2, 1 proton, 1 electron, 1 neutron. H2O = water D2O = heavy water
the atomic number, the atomic weight, the atomic symbol and atomic name.
Not necessarily; the characteristic stated in the question is valid for atoms of equal atomic number, not atomic weight.
You can use atomic weight to calculate the number of atoms in a given sample of an element. # g of sample element x (6.02 x 1023 / atomic weight in grams) = # of atoms
Atoms with the same atomic number (number of protons), but different mass numbers (i.e. different mass) are called isotopes. The difference in mass is due to different numbers of neutrons. For more info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotope
Atoms with the same atomic number are all atoms of the same element. However, if the atoms have different molecular weights, they are isotopes of the same element.
Atomic weight of fluorine = 6,022 141 78.1023 (Avogadro number) . 266,889 (the mass of atoms)/8,46.1024 (the number of atoms). The IUPAC 2005 atomic weight of fluorine is 18,998 403 2(5).
Different isotopes of an element have the same number of protons in the nucleus, giving them the same atomic number, but a different number of neutrons giving each elemental isotope a different atomic weight.
Different atomic numbers represent different elements.
The number of protons in the nuclei of their atoms. This is the atomic number of an element and each element has its own unique atomic number.
If two atoms are isotopes, it means they have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons. Thus, they have the same atomic numbers, but different atomic masses.
