Yes if they are isotopes of the element, like Carbon-14 and Nitrogen-14

Can an atom of two different elements have the same mass number?

Yes. The mass number is basic to the different elements, even more useful than the atomic number. (Unless it is an isotope. Isotopes have a different amount of neutrons than the basic element atom which makes a difference in mass number too. So, a difference in mass numbers doesn't always mean it is a different element.)


How Is it possible for the atoms of different elements to have the same mass numbers?

It is possible only because of different number of neutrons.


Are all sample of elements are composed of atoms with same atomic mass?

No, different samples of an element can have varying atomic masses due to the presence of isotopes. Isotopes are atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons, leading to different atomic masses.


Atoms of different elements are what?

Atoms of different elements are characterized by the number of protons they contain in their nucleus, which determines the atomic number and identity of the element. The arrangement and number of electrons in the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus also vary among elements. Additionally, different elements have unique chemical properties based on how their atoms interact with one another.


When two atoms appear to have the same mass number they?

When two atoms appear to have the same mass number, it means they have the same total number of protons and neutrons. However, they may have different atomic numbers, meaning they are different elements. This can occur with isotopes, where atoms of the same element have the same mass number but different numbers of neutrons.


How can Atoms vary?

Atoms and elements can vary in many ways. Atoms mainly vary by having different numbers of protons, electrons, and neutrons. The count of protons makes up an elements mass number.


What is the name for the number of protons and neutrons in atoms and elements?

mass number


What's the difference between an atomic number in the mass number of an Atom?

All the atoms of a particular element have the same atomic number (number of protons). The atoms of different elements have different numbers of protons. For example, all oxygen atoms have 8 protons and all sodium atoms have 11 protons. The mass number of an atom is the total number of protons and neutrons it contains.


What are some of the important events in 1808?

John Dalton, a british chemist, explained that elements are made of atoms and different elements have atoms of different mass


What has a different mass number than the normal atom?

We can find atomic mass and mass number in chemical elements. Atomic mass is about weight of the atom. Mass number is about total of neutrons and protons.


What is the atom with same atomic number but different mass number?

We can find atomic mass and mass number in chemical elements. Atomic mass is about weight of the atom. Mass number is about total of neutrons and protons.


Are all atoms of a given element identical to one another and different from atoms of other elements?

No. Some may have different numbers of neutrons. Atoms of the same element (atoms with the same number of protons in the nucleus) may have different numbers of neutrons, and so will have different masses. As an example, chlorine is a mixture of different isotopes with some of the atoms having different neutrons numbers.
