Quiz: Isotopes Isotopes of an element have the same number of neutrons the same number of protons a different number of protons 1/4 Next
Can isotopes of the same element have different chemical properties? Generally, isotopes have identical chemical properties because they have the same electron configuration. 14 What defines an isotope? An isotope is defined by its number of neutrons, differing among atoms of the same element. 10 ...
Isotopes of an element have substantially the same chemical and. physical properties and it is 13 a difficult matter to separate them. So far as there are methods of isotope separation they depend upon quite small differences; upon differences in properties more or less directly associated with th...
Allotropes are different forms of the same element with distinct physical or chemical properties; Isotopes are atoms of the same element with differing numbers of neutrons.
Isotopes - isotope: atoms of the same element that have different numbers of neutrons - Carbon, as found in nature, is a mixture of isotopes, including atoms of carbon-12, carbon-13, and small amounts of carbon-14. Isotopes atomic weight - The atomic weight of an element is the weighted...
of protons, but different neutron numbers. however, isotopes have different mass numbers, because they have different neutron numbers. q3 3. what are the natural isotopes? isotopes are atoms of different masses of the same element. by having different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei they get...
Atoms have no overall electrical charge so, an atom must have as many electrons as there are protons in its nucleus. The atomic number of an element also equals the number of electrons in a neutral atom of that element. Ex: Sodium What is the atomic number of Sodium? How many protons ...
Artist rendering of the basic structures of Deuterium atom. What Are Isotopes? A family of people often consists of related but not identical individuals. Elements have families as well, known as isotopes. Isotopes are members of a family of an element that all have the same number of protons...
We have seen that isotopes differ in mass number. The mass number has very little bearing on chemical reactions; therefore thereactivityand chemical reactions of an element's different isotopes are almost identical. The physical properties of atoms, however, do depend on mass. This enables isotopes...
Why do all isotopes have the same properties? Atoms of the same element that differ in their numbers of neutrons are called isotopes. ... Different isotopes of an element generally have the same physical and chemical propertiesbecause they have the same numbers of protons and electrons. ...
