They all have the same number of neutrons. All atoms of a given element have a specific number of protons. That is what gives an element its elemental identity. But we know that different atoms of a given element can have different numbers of neutrons. These different atoms of the same element are the isotopes of that element. All the atoms of a given isotope of a given element will have the same number of protons and will have the same number of neutrons. all isotopes of an atom have same number of proton but they have different number of neutron so they have same chemical properties and different physical properties. all isotopes of an atom have same number of proton but they have different number of neutron so they have same chemical properties and different physical properties.

Which subatomic particle idetifies an atom as that of a particular element?

The number of protons defines the element.


Is an Element the same throughout?

By definition, every atom of a particular element will have the same number of protons. Every atom of hydrogen has one proton, every atom of helium has 2 protons, every atom of iron has 26 protons, and so on. The number of neutrons can vary, giving different isotopes of the same element. The number of electrons can also vary, giving ions of the same element.

Why is element bigger than atom?

These words have similar meanings in that an element is made of a specific kind of atom. There is no particular reason why the word element has 7 letters and atom has only 4; that is a linguistic accident.


What kind of element is a Atom?

An atom is not an element on its own. Think of it as a building block for every element in existence. Atoms are what make up the elements.


What subatomic particle does every atom of carbon have in common?

Each carbon atom (atom number 6) has 6 protons (in nucleus) and 6 electrons (orbited around), the number of neutrons (also in nucleus) may vary from 6 or (less common) 7 or (rarely) 8.
