Answer:

isotopes are the atoms which have have same number of atomic number for example hydrogen has protium and deutrium all three have atomic number 1 but mass number 1,2,3. ... basically Uranium 235, which is an isotope of uranium, is used in nuclear reactors mainly because of how unstable it is

Explanation:

Isotopes are versions of the same element. They have the same number of protons and electrons as the element but different mass numbers and number of neutrons.

The number of nucleons (both protons and neutrons) in the nucleus is the atom's mass number, and each isotope of a given element has a different mass number. For example, carbon-12, carbon-13, and carbon-14 are three isotopes of the element carbon with mass numbers 12, 13, and 14, respectively.

Answer:

The definition of an isotope is an element with similar chemical make-up and the same atomic number, but different atomic weights to another or others. An example of an isotope is Carbon 12 to Carbon 13. ... One of two or more atoms having the same atomic number but different mass numbers

Examples of Isotopes:

*Carbon-14. A naturally occurring radioactive isotope of carbon having six protons and eight neutrons in the nucleus. ...

*Iodine-131. It is an isotope because it contains a different number of neutrons from the element iodine. ...

*Tritium.

Isotopes can be defined as the variants of chemical elements that possess the same number of protons and electrons, but a different number of neutrons. ... For example, carbon-14, carbon-13, and carbon-12 are all isotopes of carbon.
