Carbon 12 is abundant and stable.

Carbon 14 is rare and radioactive

Carbon 14 has ever so slightly different chemical properties than Carbon 12 but not so much as anyone but a really particular chemist would notice.

Do carbon 12 and 14 have the same atomic mass?

No. They have different masses, but the same atomic number. Carbon-12 has a mass number of 12 and atomic number of 6, and carbon-14 has a mass number of 14 and atomic number of 6. The difference in mass number is due to different numbers of neutrons. Carbon-12 atoms have 6 neutrons and carbon-14 atoms have 8 neutrons.


What atoms with same atomic number but different atomic masses?

Isotopes are atoms with the same number of protons (same atomic number) but different numbers of neutrons, leading to different atomic masses. For example, carbon-12 and carbon-14 are isotopes of carbon with atomic number 6 but atomic masses of 12 and 14 respectively.


Two atoms with the same atomic number but different atomic weight?

Two atoms with the same atomic number but different atomic weight are known as isotopes. Isotopes have the same number of protons and electrons, but a different number of neutrons, resulting in different atomic weights. For example, carbon-12 and carbon-14 are isotopes of carbon with the same atomic number (6) but different atomic weights due to a difference in neutron count.

Which refers to atoms with the same atomic number but different atomic masses?

They are called isotopes. eg we have different isotopes of carbon


What is the atom with same atomic number but different mass number?

We can find atomic mass and mass number in chemical elements. Atomic mass is about weight of the atom. Mass number is about total of neutrons and protons.
