Isotopes are variants of a particular chemical element which differ in neutron number, and consequently in nucleon number. ... Each atomic number identifies a specific element, but not theisotope; an atom of a given element may have a wide range in its number of neutrons.

Radioisotopes are radioactive isotopes of an element. They can also be defined as atoms that contain an unstable combination of neutrons and protons, or excess energy in their nucleus.

Answer:

An unstable isotope emits some kind of radiation, that is it is radioactive. A stable isotope is one that does not emit radiation, or, if it does its half-life is too long to have been measured. It is believed that the stability of the nucleus of an isotope is determined by the ratio of neutrons to protons.When an isotope is unstable it will decay over time and eventually it will turn into another isotope or element. Unstable isotopes are considered radioactive. Most elements that are found in nature are made up of stable isotopes.Isotope, one of two or more species of atoms of a chemical element with the same atomic number and position in the periodic table and nearly identical chemical behaviour but with different atomic masses and physical properties.
