How are isotopes the same but different?
Isotopes are different forms of the same element which have different numbers of neutrons in their atomic nuclei. A given element is identified by the number of protons in its nucleus; that's its atomic number. Two different isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons, but each has a different number of neutrons in its nucleus. Different isotopes of the same element are chemically the same.
How many isotopes can there be in an element?
There is no specific number; each element has another number of natural and artificial isotopes.
Isotopes are atoms of the same element that have?
Isotopes are atoms that have the same number of protons and electrons. They have the same atomic number on the periodic table but they have a different number of neutrons and so they have different mass. Isotopes of the same element can have different chemical properties.
How are two isotopes of an element similar to each other?
The numbers of protons and electrons are identical.
How many numders of neutrons and electrons does oxygen have?
Oxygen typically has 8 protons, 8 electrons, and 8 neutrons; the number of neutrons can vary slightly in different isotopes of oxygen.
What are the number of electrons in each of the three isotopes of oxygen?
eight electrons
All the isotopes of an element have the same number of neutrons?
No they don't have. Isotopes of an element differ in mass from from each other and this is due to the different no. of electrons in their nucleus.
How many electrons protons and neutrons are in uranium?
Uranium isotopes have 92 protons and electrons; the number of neutrons is different for each isotope.Number of neutrons = Mass number - Number of protons
How many protons electrons and neutrons does lawrencium have?
Lawrencium has 103 protons and electrons. The number of neutrons in lawrencium can vary due to different isotopes, but a common isotope, lawrencium-262, has 159 neutrons.
How many protons neutrons and electrons are there in a molecule of water?
The number of neutrons will vary depending on the isotopes of hydrogen and oxygen in the molecule. The number of protons and electrons will be 10 each in every molecule.
How are isotopes the same but different?
Isotopes are different forms of the same element which have different numbers of neutrons in their atomic nuclei. A given element is identified by the number of protons in its nucleus; that's its atomic number. Two different isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons, but each has a different number of neutrons in its nucleus. Different isotopes of the same element are chemically the same.
What is the atomic mass number in barium?
The mass number is the sum of protons and electrons in the atomic nucleus of an isotope. Barium has many isotopes and each has another mass number.
Is it true or false that isotopes are forms of an element that have the same number of protons but a different number of electrons?
False. Isotopes are forms of an element that have the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons. Electrons are not involved in determining an element's identity.
Chlorine has two isotopesstate one way in which atoms of the two isotopes are the same?
The two isotopes of chlorine are the same in that they have the same number of protons, which is the atomic number. The neutral atoms of each isotope also have the same number of electrons as protons. They differ in the number of neutrons.
Isotopes have the same number of but different numbers of?
The number of protons (and electrons in a neutral atom) is identical. The number of neutrons is different for each isotope.
How many isotopes can there be in an element?
There is no specific number; each element has another number of natural and artificial isotopes.
How many neutrons and electrons does dubnium have?
Number of neutrons = Atomic mass of an isotope - Atomic number of the element The atomic number of dubnium is 105; dubnium has many isotopes and of course each idotope has a different number of neutrons - dubnium has now 13 isotopes and 1 isomer.
