Yes, isotopes of an element are the same element but with different numbers of neutrons in the nucleus and thus different atomic masses.
Isotopes are forms of the same element that differ in Neutrons.
They differ in the amount of neutrons they possess and hence their molecular mass
Yes, isotopes of an element are the same element but with different numbers of neutrons in the nucleus and thus different atomic masses.
Same element means same number of protons. Different isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons, but a different number of neutrons.
An isotope is defined as: Each of two or more forms of the same element that contain equal numbers of protons but different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei, and hence differ in relative atomic mass but not in chemical properties; in particular, a radioactive form of an element So basically, an isotope is from the same place (element) and has the same number of protons, but the number of electrons differ. So isotopes are not subatomic; the protons and electrons that make an isotope are subatomic.
The neutron; the proton determines the element of the atom, but different atoms of the same element can have different atomic masses, due to the different number of neutrons of the atoms. Atoms of same element having same number of protons but different number of neutrons are called Isotopes. Thus, neutron determines the isotope of an atom.
the same number of both proton and neutron
The subatomic particles that contribute most almost no weight to an atom are electrons at various energy levels. Isotopes of the same element differ from each other only by the number of neutrons.
For the most part, yes the quantities of each are different. Light nucleii can have the same number of protons and neutrons and be stable enough to stay the same element (deuterium = 2H, 4He, 6Li , 10B, 12C, 14N, 16O, 20Ne, 24Mg, 28Si, 32S, 36Ar, 40Ca are stable), but a nucleus of a given element can sometimes have more or less neutrons, and be stable. Tin is the heaviest nucleus that has an isotope where #p = #n, and this isotope is very unstable
Isotopes are forms of the same element that differ in Neutrons.
such forms of an elements are known as isotopes.
Isotopes of the same element have different number of neutrons.
Isotopes of the same element differ in the number of neutrons. Isotopes have different physical properties but similar chemical properties.
Atoms of the same element that differ in the number of neutrons they contain are known as isotopes.
They're called isotopes. The number of neutrons varies, but the chemistry stays the same.
