All isotopes of an element have the same number of protons, otherwise they would not be the same element. What varies is the number of neutrons, they can be more or less than in the stable isotope(s) of the element.

What is an isotope of the element with 20 protons and 20 neutrons?

An isotope of the element with 20 protons and 20 neutrons is calcium-40. Calcium has an atomic number of 20, which means it has 20 protons. The total number of protons and neutrons in calcium-40 is 40 (20 protons + 20 neutrons).


How can scientist determine whether the nucleus formed is that of new element or that of new isotope of known element?

They can tell whether the nucleus formed is that of a new element or that of an isotope by determining the number of protons inside the nucleus. If the number of protons are different, then it is a different element (not necessarily new). If the number of protons are the same, then it is an isotope.


What is the isotope symbol for an element with 6 protons and a mass number of 15?

The isotope symbol for an element with 6 protons and a mass number of 15 is C-15.


An element has 22 protons 20 electrons and 26 neutrons What isotope is it?

The element with 22 protons is titanium (Ti). The sum of protons and neutrons determines the isotope, so with 26 neutrons, the isotope is titanium-48 (22 protons + 26 neutrons = Ti-48).

Thorium (Th) has 90 protons.


An isotope of nitrogen could have more protons neutron electrons?

An isotope of nitrogen will always have 7 protons, as this defines the element. However, it can have a different number of neutrons, thus changing the mass number of the isotope. The number of electrons in an isotope is equal to the number of protons to maintain overall charge neutrality.


What is it called when the atom of an element has a different number of protons?

an isotope.
