Atoms are defined by the number of protons in the nucleus; therefore, we can tell what element it is by the number of protons (the information about the neutrons and electrons is unnecessary). An atom with 77 protons is iridium.

Isotopes of the same element have the same chemical properties because they have the same number of?

...electrons.Isotopes contain the same number of protons (hence, the same number of electrons) and electrons are what determine reactivity. 2nd answer : The isotopes have the same chemical properties because the electronic configuration of an element is same there fore isotopes posses the same chemical properties .
