Define Isotopes? Give two examples of elements which have isotopes.
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

Isotopes are different forms of a single element .
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.
