Question

What is ISOTOPES?????

Answer 1

$\blue{\bold{\underline{\underline{Answer:-}}}}$

• Isotopes are variants of a particular chemical element which differ in neutron number, and consequently in nucleon number.

• All isotopes of a given element have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons in each atom.

$\blue{\bold{\underline{\underline{Example:-}}}}$

• example of an isotope is Carbon 12 to Carbon 13.

Answer 2

Answer:

The three naturally-occurring isotopes of hydrogen. The fact that each isotope has one proton makes them all variants of hydrogen: the identity of the isotope is given by the number of protons and neutrons. From left to right, the isotopes are protium (1H) with zero neutrons, deuterium (2H) with one neutron, and tritium (3H) with two neutrons.

Isotopes are variants of a particular chemical element which differ in neutron number, and consequently in nucleon number. All isotopes of a given element have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons in each atom.
