What is true about all the isotopes of an element?
All isotopes of an element have the same number of protons. When they are not ionic, they have the same number of electrons. And, for all practical purposes, they behave identically as chemicals. share most of the same physical properties, and chemical properties. They have different number of neutrons.
Nickel has 5 isotopes what is the relationship of these isotopes?
The isotopes of nickel share the same number of protons (28) but differ in the number of neutrons in their nuclei, resulting in different mass numbers. Each isotope of nickel has a different abundance in nature, with nickel-58 being the most common.
How are all of the isotopes of an element similar?
by having the same number of protons and electrons and so still have the same chemical properties and physical properties with the exception of being somewhat denser.All of the isotopes of an element contain the same number of protons. They differ only in the number of neutrons.The number of electrons is an ionization state issue, and does not affect isotopic identity.
Are all atoms of an element the same?
If it is a pure element, yes usually but not always. If it is a mix of isotopes then no. Carbon for example is not pure C12 - with 6 protons and 6 neutrons. Naturally there is some C13 and traces of C14 with 7 and 8 neutrons respectively present.
What is the position of isotopes in the modern periodic table?
Isotopes are not specifically located in the modern periodic table because they have the same number of protons (same element) but different numbers of neutrons. However, isotopes of an element share similar chemical properties due to their identical electronic configurations.
How do isotopes of a given element differ How are they similar?
Isotopes have same number of electrons, same atomic no. but different mass no. They are from the same element like isotopes of carbon. They are not having same number of neutrons. They show same electronic configuration.

Are all atoms of elements the same?
No. Generally definition of an element refer to a group of atoms that have same number of protons and share same chemical properties and called isotopes of an element. Though weight of isotopes can differ representing difference in neutron number.
What you mean when you say that a particular element consists of several isotopes?
All atoms of the same element contain the same number of protons and electrons, but atoms of a given element may have different numbers of neutrons. Atoms with the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons are called isotopes. An element has many isotopes--each with a close, but different number of neutrons.
What are the similarities and differences among the isotopes of an element?
Similar in number of protons, electrons, thus in chemical properties, except in nuclear reactions. Different in number of neutrons, mass and a lot of physical properties.
Nickel has 5 isotopes what is the relationship of these isotopes?
The isotopes of nickel share the same number of protons (28) but differ in the number of neutrons in their nuclei, resulting in different mass numbers. Each isotope of nickel has a different abundance in nature, with nickel-58 being the most common.
What is meant by the statement -this element has 3 isotopes?
The statement means that the element in question has three different forms (isotopes) with varying numbers of neutrons in their atomic nuclei. These isotopes of the element share the same number of protons and electrons but have different atomic masses due to the differing number of neutrons.

Can you always determine an element by the number of neutrons?
No, because some elements have Isotopes, with the same Proton number but different Neutron numbers. Sometimes therefore, the neutron number can overlap with that of isotopes of other elements. For example, two of Helium's isotopes share neutron numbers with two of Hydrogen's isotopes. Deuterium has 1 neutron, and so does 3He, Tritium has 2 neutrons, and so does 4He. It is the number of protons which determines which element it is.
Atoms of the same element with different atomic masses?
Isotopes are atoms of the same element with different atomic masses, characterized by the number of neutrons in the nucleus. Despite having different masses, isotopes share the same number of protons and electrons. Certain isotopes may be unstable, leading to radioactive decay.
Isotopes are atoms of the same element that have different atomic masses?
Yes. An element is defined by its atomic number, the number, or the number of protons in its nucleus. When an atom has more or less neutrons it is still the same element, but a different isotope of that element.
