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

What element does promethium change into after emitting beta particles?

Isotopes of promethium decay to isotopes of neodymium.


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.


What particles differ in number in isotopes of the same element?

neutron


Are isotopes charged?

Isotopes are not typically charged because they have the same number of protons as the element they represent. Isotopes differ in the number of neutrons but maintain the same overall charge due to an equal number of protons and electrons.


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.


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.


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

It is called a radioisotope.


What are different atomic forms of an element?

An element can exist in different atomic forms known as isotopes, which have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons. For example, carbon has isotopes like carbon-12 and carbon-14. Additionally, an element can form ions by gaining or losing electrons, resulting in charged particles with different electron configurations.


The likely location of the negatively charged particles in an atom is called a?

The number of positively charged particles in atoms of a given element?

The number of positively charged particles in atoms of a given element is equal to the number of protons in the nucleus of the atom. This number is referred to as the atomic number of the element and it determines the element's identity on the periodic table.


What are the different members of an atoms family called?

The different members of an atom's family are called isotopes, ions, and allotropes. Isotopes are variants of an element with the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons. Ions are charged particles formed when atoms gain or lose electrons. Allotropes are different structural forms of the same element, like carbon's diamond and graphite forms.


Different isotopes of an element contain different numbers of which particles?

The number of neutrons differ for each isotope of a chemical element.
