Hey
1) Their nucleus contains different number of neutrons although the number of electrons and protons are same.
2) Their electronic configuration has no change as number of electrons is same in both.
3) Due to presence of more neutrons in nuclei the mass numbers of the two are same.
Hope it helps #))
