Isotopes are atoms that have the same number of protons, but different number of neutrons in the nucleus of the atom. So the Carbon atom normally has 12 protons and 12 neutrons, but a few carbon atoms have 12 protons and 14 neutrons.
The number of protons in the nucleus and electrons in the shell determine the properties of the element, but the extra neutrons can cause the element to be a little heavier or lighter than normal.
The number of neutrons is different.
Neutrons.
They are called isotopes and the difference between different isotopes of one type of element is the amount of neutrons each have.
Isotopes of the same element, with different numbers of neutrons.
isotopes of a given element differ in the number of neutrons they have.
The number of neutrons is different.
Neutrons.
because they differ in the number of neutrons
They are called isotopes and the difference between different isotopes of one type of element is the amount of neutrons each have.
Atomsof the same element that have different atomic massesare isotopes of one another.
Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons. This results in variations in atomic mass for isotopes. The element atoms on the periodic table represent the average mass of all its naturally occurring isotopes.
Isotopes of the same element, with different numbers of neutrons.
isotopes of a given element differ in the number of neutrons they have.
Yes
isotopes
They differ in their number of neutrons.Atoms of all isotopes of carbon contain 6 protons and 6 electrons.Carbon-12 is the most common isotope.Isotopes of an element differ because each isotope has a different neutrons, but the same amount of protons.Example: H-1H-2H-1 has 1 neutron, 1 proton, and 1 electronH-2 ,however, has 2 neutrons, 1 proton, and 1 electron.
Atoms of the same element can differ from one another in their atomic mass, which is determined by the number of neutrons in the nucleus. These variations are called isotopes. Isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons.
