Answer 2

Answer:

1) All isotopes of an element consist of the same number of protons inside their nuclei. Hence, they have the same atomic number.

2) All isotopes of an element consist of different number of neutrons in their nuclei. Hence, they have different mass number.

3) All isotopes of an element give identical chemical reactions.

4) Isotopes of an element have same electronic configuration.
