The physical properties are of course different.

The chemical properties are considered identical but this is not a general rule; for example hydrogen isotopes (1H and 2H) have some different chemical and biochemical properties.

How are two atoms of the same elements alike?

They have all the chemical, physical, nuclear properties identical. This is not the case for isotopes.


What are elements that have the same atoms and the same elements?

Isotopes are elements that have the same number of protons (same element) but different numbers of neutrons in the nucleus. All isotopes of an element have the same chemical properties but may have different physical properties due to their different atomic masses.


How are isotopes alike?

Isotopes are exactly same with respect to all the chemical properties but they differ with respect to physical properties.


Why does both isotopes of phosphorus have identical chemical properties?

All isotopes of a substance are chemically the same. It is their physical properties which are different.


How are normal elements differ from an isotope of the element?

Normal elements have a specific number of protons in the nucleus, while isotopes have the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons. Isotopes of an element have the same chemical properties, but different physical properties such as atomic mass.


Is isotopes of same element have same properties?

The differences in chemical properties are not significant (excepting protium and deuterium); the physical properties are different.


Can an element be separated into its elements using physical properties?

An element is the basic purist substance , it is composed of atoms of same kind ,not of elements hence an element can't be separated in elements , your question is wrong . A compound can be separated in component elements .


Why isotopes of the same element are not considered different elements?

Isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons, which is what defines an element. The only difference between isotopes is the number of neutrons in the nucleus. Since isotopes of an element have the same chemical properties, they are not considered different elements.


How do the physical properties of isotopes of the same element compare?

The number of neutrons is different; the differences between physical properties exists but are extremely small.


Do elements in the same group have the same physical or chemical properties?

Elements in the same group have similar properties as they have the same number of valence electrons.


What elements have similar chemical and physical properties.?

elements in the same group


What makes isotopes different from elements on the periodic table?

Isotopes are variants of elements with the same number of protons but different number of neutrons, leading to varying atomic masses. Elements on the periodic table represent the different types of atoms identified by the number of protons in their nucleus. Isotopes of an element have similar chemical properties but may have different physical properties due to variances in atomic mass.
