What else can I help you with?
Is it true that all the atoms of a given element are different from each other?
No. All atoms of the same element have the same number of protons and, when neutral, the same number of electrons. They can, however, differ in the number of neutrons.
What is the only particle that can change in number for an isotope?
The Neutron- An element with the same number of protons and electrons, but with a different number of neutrons per atom than the original element is called an "isotope". An isotope will have, for all intensive purposes, about the same chemical and physical properties as the original element. Isotopes are written as the element, followed by a dash, then the number of neutrons in one atom of that isotope (Carbon-13 is an isotope of carbon with 13 neutrons per atom)
Which element has atomic number of 56 and mass number of 137?
The element with atomic number 56 is Barium (Ba). Given the mass number of 137, it means there are 137 total particles in the nucleus (protons and neutrons combined), so the number of neutrons for this isotope of Barium would be 137 - 56 = 81 neutrons.
Isotopes exist because atoms of the same element can have a different numbers of what?
Isotopes are different atoms of the same element with the same number of protons (proton number) but different in number of neutrons. Given that nucleon number is equal to the sum of proton and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom, isotopes have different nucleon number due to difference in number of neutrons.
All atoms of a given element have exactly the same number of which type of subatomic particle?
Protons. All atoms of a given element have the same number of protons in their nucleus, which determines the element's identity.
How do the isotopes of given element differ from one another?
isotopes of a given element differ in the number of neutrons they have.
What are atoms of a given element that have a different number of neutrons?
Isotopes.
Do the nuclei of all atoms of a given element always have the same number of neutrons?
No - different isotopes of an element have different numbers of neutrons. All atoms of an element will have the same number of protons.
How do you calculate the atomic number of the given element?
protons plus neutrons = atomic number
Which of the following is unique for any given element A the number of protons B the number of neutrons C the charge on the electrons D the mass of the neutron?
its atomic numberthe number of neutrons
What number identify an element?
The atomic number of an element is equal to the number of protons in the nucleus of that element; it will identify the element. The number of neutrons of a given element may be different as the element may have a number of isotopes.
What name is given to en element with the same number of protons but differing number on neutrons?
IsotopeIsotopes
Is it true that all the atoms of a given element are different from each other?
No. All atoms of the same element have the same number of protons and, when neutral, the same number of electrons. They can, however, differ in the number of neutrons.
What is make an atom isotope?
It is the neutron that makes changes in atomic nuclei to change them from one isotope to another. For any given element, that element will have a fixed number of protons. It is, after all, the number of protons that determine the elemental identity. But the number of neutrons in a given element can vary, and we use the term isotope to talk about which particular atom we're investigating. That is, we apply the term isotope to speak to an atom of a given element with a certain number of neutrons in its nucleus.
What determines the mass of an isotope?
The number of neutrons in the nucleus, the number of protons is the same for each isotope of a given element.
What is the only particle that can change in number for an isotope?
The Neutron- An element with the same number of protons and electrons, but with a different number of neutrons per atom than the original element is called an "isotope".

Isotopes are written as the element, followed by a dash, then the number of neutrons in one atom of that isotope (Carbon-13 is an isotope of carbon with 13 neutrons per atom)
What name is given to elements wih the same number of protons but differing numbers of neutrons?
They are called as isotopes of the given element.
