They have similar chemical properties because isotopes of an element have the same number of electrons as an atom of that element. The electron arrangement is the same owing to same chemical properties. However they have different numbers of neutrons, which affects the mass number. Mass number determines the physical properties such as boiling/melting/density etc.

What makes two istopes of the same element different?
istopes have different numbers of neutrons and most of their elements have several istopes
How isotopes resemble from each other?
istopes
What subatomic particle varies in number in all the istopes of a particular element?
neutrons
What are Nuclear Isotopes?
Nuclear Isotopes are different types of atoms of the same chemical element having a different number of neutrons, which that chemical element is involved in the nuclear industry (e.g.: Uranium-235, Astatine-211, Americium-241). Most are very unstable, but a handful of them naturally occur on Earth (e.g.: Iodine-131, Carbon-14, Caesium-137) Nuclear Isotopes are radioactive and should be treated with extreme care! No joke here when handling even the safest of nuclear isotopes (just in case you were wondering, Uranium-235 or Depleted Uranium, is the safest nuclear isotope).
When were isotopes discovered?
istopes was discovered by joseph john and francis aston both discovered isotopes ------------------- The first hypothesis on isotopes is from Frederick Soddy (1912); the practical confirmation is attributed to J. J. Thomson (1913).
How are istopes of the same element alike?
Same number of protons; identical or very similar chemical properties.
What makes two istopes of the same element different?
istopes have different numbers of neutrons and most of their elements have several istopes
Why do all istopes of an element have the same chemical peoperties?
because chemical properties are determined by the nomber of electrons and protons and all isotops have the same number electrons and protons. they differ in the number of neutrons alone which doesnt affect chemical properties
What are isotopes easy definition?
Isotopes are atoms of the same element that have the same number of protons and electrons, but different numbers of neutrons. This results in isotopes having the same chemical properties but different atomic masses.
What are Atoms of the same substance that have different number of neutrons?
istopes
Are all atoms of the same element chemically alike?
Not 100%; Istopes of an element do have identical electronic structures but there are slight differences in mass: 'Molecules with different isotopes of a particular element have different bonding characteristics: the bonds between the atoms are just a bit different because the atoms have different masses. As a result, the molecules with different isotopes behave a little bit different during chemical reactions.' See related link
