Isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons (atomic number) but differ in number of neutrons (hence atomic masses).
Atoms of the same element that have different masses are called isotopes of the element. The presence of different numbers of neutrons in the nucleus is responsible for the existence of isotopes of an element.
Yes, that is correct. Isotopes are atoms of the same element with the same number of protons (atomic number) but different numbers of neutrons (atomic mass). This difference in neutrons results in isotopes having different atomic masses.
The isotopes of an element have the same number of protons, but different numbers of neutrons.
Two atoms are isotopes of each other when they have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons. This results in the atoms having the same chemical properties but different atomic masses.
Isotopes are atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei, resulting in different atomic masses. This is how there can be two different atoms of iridium.
Isotopes
Isotopes are atoms with the same number of protons (atomic number) but different numbers of neutrons, resulting in different atomic masses. These isotopes have similar chemical properties but may have different physical properties due to their different masses.
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.
Different atoms and elements that have different number of protns, neutrons and electrons.Duh!
These atoms are called isotopes and they have a different number of neutrons.
Atoms of the same element that have different masses are called isotopes of the element. The presence of different numbers of neutrons in the nucleus is responsible for the existence of isotopes of an element.
They are called isotopes. eg we have different isotopes of carbon
Different atoms of the same element possessing different atomic masses but having same atomic number are known as Isotopes. Since the isotopic atoms have the same atomic number, they must contain an equal number of protons. As their atomic masses are different, there must be a difference in the number of neutrons they possess. They will show similar chemical properties but their physical properties will be different due to different masses.
Masses.
Isotopes of an element have different masses but the same atomic number. Isotopes have the same number of protons and electrons but different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei.
No, different samples of an element can have varying atomic masses due to the presence of isotopes. Isotopes are atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons, leading to different atomic masses.
They are called isotopes. They have different mass nmbers because they have a different number of neutrons.
