Are heavy fission isotopes disrupted by accelerated charged photons?

photons cannot be charged!


Are isotopes of an element charged particles?

No, that's an ion. An isotope is an atom of the same element with a different number of neutrons.


How do isotopes of nitrogen differ from nitrogen ions?

Isotopes of nitrogen have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons, affecting their atomic mass. Nitrogen ions are charged particles of nitrogen that have either gained or lost electrons, making them either negatively or positively charged.


Are ions and isotopes charged?

Not necessarily no, not strictly speaking, but it can be. An Ion is a charged particle. As an example SO42- is an ion. It is not a charged atom. It is a charged species formed from 5 atoms. A lone proton (H+ ) is a charged atom of hydrogen after it has been stripped of one electron. Cl- is an ion and in this case yes - it is a charged atom.


Ions are charged and isotopes are not true or false?

True. Isotopes are defined by the amount of neutral neutrons which have no effect on the polarity of the atom. ions are defined by a differing amount of protons and electrons, therefore charging them.


What are isotopes which send off charged particles and radiant energy from their nuclei called?

It is called a radioisotope.


Are ions charged and isotopes not?

Ions are charged particles caused by the loss or gain of an electron moving the atom from its ground state to an excited state. an isotope is formed from the loss of a neutron.


How many neutrons does a positively charged atom of calcium have?

Most naturally occurring calcium atoms have 20 neutrons, but they may also have 21, 22, 23, 24, 26, or 28. Isotopes with 21, 26, or 28 neutrons are radioactive. The isotopes with 21 neutrons are formed from isotopes with 20 neutrons which underwent neutron activation. Whether a calcium atom is positively charged or neutral does not affect how many neutrons it has.


Is it true that the number of protons always equals the number of neutrons in all isotopes?

No. the statement is false.Number of positively charged protons always equals number of negatively charged electrons in a neutral atom


Is radioactive uranium positively charged?

No, uranium is not positively charged. Uranium is a chemical element with a neutral charge due to an equal number of protons and electrons. However, some isotopes of uranium are radioactive, meaning they can emit radiation as they undergo radioactive decay.


What are the ions and isotopes?

1. Ions are electrically charged atoms of an element; examples are H+, Ca2+, Y3+ etc. 1. Isotopes are atoms of the same element but having different number of neutrons in the nucleus: examples are hydrogen (protium), deuterium, tritium etc.


An atom has the same number of which two particles?

An atom has the same number of electrons and protons. Protons are positively charged particles found in the nucleus of an atom, while electrons are negatively charged particles that orbit the nucleus.
