An Isotope of an element is an atom that has the same number of protons, (number of protons is the defining feature of an element) but different number of neutrons.
Because The mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons, different isotopes have different mass numbers.
both the atomic number and the atomic mass remain the same.
Isotopes
Isotopes describe atoms with the same number of protons and different number of neutrons. These isotopes have the same atomic number but different mass numbers, resulting in variations in atomic mass.
The atomic number is the same for all isotopes.
The number of protons and neutrons is what determines the mass of an isotope. Even though isotopes of a particular element have the same number of protons, but a different number of neutrons, which causes their mass to be different.
isotopes of the same element have different mass number
both the atomic number and the atomic mass remain the same.
both the atomic number and the atomic mass remain the same
Isotopes
They are called as isotopes in which mass number differ by emmision of radiation
No: They have the same atomic number but not the same atomic mass.
isotopes
Isotopes describe atoms with the same number of protons and different number of neutrons. These isotopes have the same atomic number but different mass numbers, resulting in variations in atomic mass.
Atoms with the same number of protons but different mass numbers are called isotopes. Isotopes have the same atomic number but different atomic weights due to variations in the number of neutrons in the nucleus.
The atomic number is the same for all isotopes.
The number of protons and neutrons is what determines the mass of an isotope. Even though isotopes of a particular element have the same number of protons, but a different number of neutrons, which causes their mass to be different.
2 isotopes of the same element will have the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons. The sum of protons and neutrons is the mass number, so different isotopes will have different mass numbers.
