Define the term isotope explain how two isotopes of an element are different?

Isotopes are atoms of the same element that have different numbers of neutrons. Different isotopes of an element have the same atomic number, but different mass numbers. I hope I helped! ^_^

the atomic electrons.


Does one atom of fluorine have more mass than one atom of isotope?

The answer is "which istope of what element?" An isotope of an element is an atom of that element that has the correct number of protons (the "atomic number") which defines the element, and one of a variety of numbers of neutrons. The number of protons plus the number of neutrons in the atom determine the "atomic mass" of that isotope of that element. A "standard" atom of carbon, for example, has 6 protons and 6 neutrons, for an atomic mass of 12 (hence it is called carbon 12) Another isotope of carbon is carbon 14, which has 6 protons to define it as carbon, but has 8 neutrons. It is the same element, with the same chemical properties, but a slightly different mass. The "standard" atom of fluorine has an atomic mass of 19 and an atomic number of 9. This is the only stable sotope of fluorine. Other isotopes can be made, but they decay very rapidly, splitting in to lighter elements and emitting energy as radiation.

Define atomic radii?

The atomic radii is the measure of the size of the atoms in a chemical element. This is the distance from the nucleus to the boundary of the electrons' cloud.
