Atoms of an element can have different numbers of protons?
No, they can't. Atoms (be careful of the difference between atoms and ions) can only have different numbers of neutrons, and those are called isotopes.
What are the difference between isotopes ions and molecules?
the main difference between an ions and molecules is that an ion contain the positive "cation" as well as negatively "anions" charge.The main reason is that the ions are the compounds composed of metals and non metals,so the intermix of the outer shell of particular atom can create the different charges.Where as in molecules,they are nuetral.
How many isotopes are in tin?
10 isotopes 10 isotopes
What is the difference between an Ion and an Molecule?
Ions are charged.
What are similarities between ions and isotopes?
Ions and isotopes are both atoms of a given element with a different number of particles. While the number of protons in an element never change, the number of neutrons and electrons can. In an ion their is a different number of electrons, changing the charge, but having a negligible effect on the mass. Among isotopes the number of neutrons varies, changing the atomic mass but not the charge.

What is the difference between isotopes and a radioisotope?

What is the major difference between isotopes?
Different numbers of neutrons, e.g. deuterium and tritium are isotopes of hydrogen.

The main difference between isotopes of the sameelement has to do with the number?
mass number
What do two neutral isotopes of the element have in common?
The same numbers of protons and of electrons; the difference between isotopes is in the number of neutrons.
Can radioactive isotopes be ions?
Probably not, no.
How many isotopes are in tin?
10 isotopes 10 isotopes
How do scientist tell the different between two isotopes of the same element?
scientists Can tell the difference between two isotopes of the same element because, isotopes of the same elements always have the same number of protons.
What is the difference between an Ion and an Molecule?
Ions are charged.
Can 2 isotopes of the same element differ in the number of electrons?
No. The only difference between 2 isotopes of the same element is the number of neutrons.
What is the difference between ions and isotopes?
An isotope is two or more forms of the same element that contain equal numbers of protons but different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei. An ion is atom or molecule with a net electric charge due to the loss or gain of one or more electrons. Usually, isotopes are radioactive and only there neutrons differ. Ions are molecules that gain or lose electrons to fill their outer energy level.
