What else can I help you with?
Is it typical of transition metals to have isotopes?
Some do, some don't. Scandium and manganese, for example, do not, copper has only two isotopes.
What are the example of radioisotopes?
Hydrogen-3 Carbon-14 Potassium-40 All isotopes every Actinide (eg=Uranium, Actinium, Thorium) All isotopes of Technetium , etc.
What is the name given to atoms of the same element which vary in number of neutrons they contain?
Atoms of the same element that differ in the number of neutrons they contain are know as isotopes. Isotopes are identified by their mass number. For example hydrogen with an extra neutron is called Deuterium.
Do all isotopes only occur in heavier elements?
No, isotopes of light elements exist as well. For example, there are several isotopes of the lightest element, hydrogen.No, even the lightest element (hydrogen (H)) has isotopes. These are called Deuterium and Tritium.All elements have isotopes but some of them are very unstable and have disappeared in nature over time.
Why does it matter which isotope of oxygen you breath?
Because some isotopes of Oxygen are toxic (ozone for example) !
how isotopes are formed and what the example?
Isotopes are formed by nucleosynthesis.Uranium natural isotopes: U-234, U-235, U-238.
What element has all of their isotopes radioactive?
An example is uranium.
Is it typical of transition metals to have isotopes?
Some do, some don't. Scandium and manganese, for example, do not, copper has only two isotopes.
How are isotopes of the same element named?
The same name with a different atomic mass number. As an example U235 and U238 are two isotopes of Uranium
Some example of isotopes?
Hydrogen-2, Carbon-13, Uranium-238
If there are 2 or more atoms contain the same number of protons but different numbers of neutronswhat are they called?
They are called isotopes. An example of isotopes are Carbon-12 and Carbon-14.
What are some examples for americium?
For example some useful isotopes: 241Am, 242mAm, 243Am.
Is astatine an example of radioactive element?
Yes. There are no stable isotopes of astatine, they are all radioactive.

Is uranium an example of an unstable element?
All the isotopes of uranium (natural or artificial) are radioactive and unstable.
