Answer:

The Isotopes of Hydrogen

It is often useful to study the simplest system. Therefore, hydrogen, the simplest nucleus, has been studied extensively. The isotopes of hydrogen show many of the effects found in more complicated nuclei. (The word isotope refers to a nucleus with the same Z but different A).

There are three isotopes of the element hydrogen: hydrogen, deuterium, and tritium. How do we distinguish between them? They each have one single proton (Z = 1), but differ in the number of their neutrons. Hydrogen has no neutron, deuterium has one, and tritium has two neutrons. The isotopes of hydrogen have, respectively, mass numbers of one, two, and three. Their nuclear symbols are therefore 1H, 2H, and 3H. The atoms of these isotopes have one electron to balance the charge of the one proton. Since chemistry depends on the interactions of protons with electrons, the chemical properties of the isotopes are nearly the same

Answer:

Isotopes are the forms of an element having equal atomic number (i.e.no.of protons or electrons) but different atomic mass number.

isotopes of hydrogen are

protium (Z=1,A=1)

deuterium(Z=1,A=2)

tritium (Z=1, A=3)

Z=Atomic no. and A=atomic mass no.

hope it helps...
