The main difference between the three isotopes of Hydrogen are the number of neutrons in the nucleus. Hydrogen has no neutrons, Deuterium has one neutron and Tritium has two neutrons. All three have one proton and one electrons.

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.


What are the different isotopes of hydrogen and was is each isotopes mass . How many protons neutrons and electrons found in each isotope?

All isotopes of hydrogen have 1 proton and 1 electron; the isotope H-1 (protium) hasn't a neutron. the mass is 1.Other isotopes are:- H-2 (deuterium): 1 p, 1n, 1e; mass 2.- H-3: 1 p, 2n, 1e; mass 3.- H-4: 1 p, 3n, 1e; mass 4.- H-5: 1 p, 4n, 1e; mass 5.- H-6: 1 p, 5n, 1e; mass 6.- H-7: 1 p, 6n, 1e; mass 7.H-1, H-2 and H-3 are natural isotopes; H-1 and H-2 are stable isotopes.Isotopes from H-3 to H-7 are radioactive and unstable.
