yes. Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons, thus electorns, thus the same chemical properties. Where isotpes differ is in the number of neutrons.

Consider hydrogen, atomic number 1, atomic weight 1, 1 proton, 1 electron vs

duterium, atomic number 1 atomic weight 2, 1 proton, 1 electron, 1 neutron.

H2O = water

D2O = heavy water

All atoms of the same element are defined to have the same atomic number. Isotopes are atoms of the same element AND atomic number but different number of NEUTRONS.

Atoms of the same Element have this.


What are Atoms with the same number of protons are?

All atoms with the same number of protons are atoms of the same element. The number of protons is the atomic number of the element.


What are atoms with the same atomic number but different mass called?

Atoms with the same atomic number are all atoms of the same element. However, if the atoms have different molecular weights, they are isotopes of the same element.


Do all atoms of any one element have the same atomic number?

An atomic number is actually related to an element and not an atom. Therefore, the question is not relevant. It is NOT atoms that have an atomic number; it is the element.


Can atoms of different elements have the same number of protons be from the same element?

No. Each type of atom (element) has its own unique number of protons, which is called the atomic number. Atoms of the same element will always have the same atomic number (number of protons). Atoms of different elements will never have the same atomic number (number of protons).


Atoms of the same atomic are called what?

isotopes Atoms of the same element are called Isotopes. they have the same number of atoms (i.e. same atomic number) but different number of neutrons


Why do all atoms of an element have the same atomic number?

The atomic number of an element is the number of protons in its nucleus. The number of protons define what the element is.
