A number following an element, such as cobalt-60, tells us that a specific isomer of that element is being referenced. Isotopes are atoms of the same element that have a different number of neutrons in the nucleus. All cobalt atoms will have the same amount of protons, 27, because that is what makes it cobalt, however they can have a different amount of neutrons. The mass number is the number following the element's name and it tells us the total of both protons and neutrons in the nucleus. By subtracting the 27 protons in cobalt from the mass number of the isotope we find that cobalt-60 has 33 neutrons while cobalt-59 has 32 neutrons.
This means that the structural difference between cobalt-60 and other isotopes of cobalt is the number of neutrons in the nucleus.
Another fun fact:
Cobalt-60 is the radioactive isotope commonly used in radiation therapy for cancer.
Constitutional isomers have different structural arrangements of atoms in their molecules, while stereoisomers have the same structural arrangement but differ in the spatial orientation of their atoms. Constitutional isomers have different chemical and physical properties due to their distinct structures, while stereoisomers have similar properties because of their identical structures.
An isomer is a molecule with the same chemical formula but different structural arrangement of atoms. A constitutional isomer is a type of isomer where the atoms are connected in a different order.
Constitutional isomers have different connectivity of atoms in their structures, while stereoisomers have the same connectivity of atoms but differ in their spatial arrangement.
The key difference between aldoses and ketoses lies in their functional groups. Aldoses have an aldehyde functional group at the end of the carbon chain, while ketoses have a ketone functional group in the middle of the carbon chain. This structural variation affects their chemical properties and reactivity.
Aldehydes and ketones are both types of organic compounds with a carbonyl group, but the key difference is their location within the molecule. Aldehydes have the carbonyl group at the end of a carbon chain, while ketones have it in the middle. This structural variance leads to differences in their chemical properties and reactivity.
One structural difference between Stentor and vorticella is that Stentor is a protozoa. Vorticella is a sessile organism, meaning that it is immobile.
The structural formula show the position of atoms in a molecule.
A structural formula represents the molecule graphically, whereas the other does not.

There is structural difference between xylem and phloem. This is because their function is also different. Had there been no difference in structure, how these could have performed different function?

There may be a small amount of structural difference between the two. The 2 door post will have the post running to the roof while the hard top does not. The 2 door post has the window in the door framed and the hard top does not.
Yes it is an option you must add when you get to the dealership.
It does not make a difference. Take a Camry and a Camry hybrid, there is no structural difference between them. The engine of a car plays no role in safety. It does not make a difference.

the difference is that the earth's theory is similar to that of a hypotheses , structure and compositional layer of the earth.
Do you meant safranine T and safranine O. Yes, there is some chemical structural differences between them.
