What can you infer about two substances that have the same atomic number but different atomic masses. what term would you use to classify these two substances?

They are isotopes (same number of protons, differing numbers of neutrons) They should therefore have the same chemical properties (same atomic number = same number of electrons), but have slightly different physical properties ( one will naturally be heavier etc).

What atoms with same atomic number but different atomic masses?
Isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons (atomic number) but differ in number of neutrons (hence atomic masses).
Are there any physical properties that differ between isotopes?
Atomic Masses are different So Boiling point, freezing points. inter-molecular forces, etc may be different as they depend on atomic masses
When you compare masses of the same volume of different substances you are doing what?
Comparing density
What do you called in an element having the same atomic number but different atomic masses?
Isotopes. eg U235 and U238. Both Uranium, atomic number 92, bur different isotopes.
When equal amounts of energy are transferred to or from equal masses of different substance the substance will undergo different changes in temperature because of their different?

Atoms having the same atomic number but different atomic masses?
Isotopes
Do all elements have different atomic masses?
yes
Isotopes of the same element have different .?
atomic masses
What do you call atoms of the same element with different atomic masses?
They are called isotopes. They have different mass nmbers because they have a different number of neutrons.
What cause different isotopes to have different atomic masses?
Different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei.
What are atoms of the same element thay have different atomic masses?
when you have two different forms of an atom with different masses, it's called an isotope of the atom.
Which refers to atoms with the same atomic number but different atomic masses?
They are called isotopes. eg we have different isotopes of carbon
Why does the atomic mass of some elements is shown as a decimal value?
Many atoms exist in the form of different isotopes. These have different numbers of neutrons and so their atomic masses are different. The atomic mass for the element is the average of these masses, weighted together according to their abundance.
10 kinds of isotopes and their application?
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.
