The two boron atoms listed in the table are isotopes of the boron. The two carbon atoms and the two oxygen atoms are also called isotopes. Based on the patterns in the particle compositions of these atoms, write a definition for “isotopes”

Respuesta :

Answer:

A type of an atom which has a different number of neutrons but the same atomic number, therefore making it the same element. This atom would still have the same properties as well. (Ex: Vanadium-51 is an isotope of Vanadium that has 51 neutrons but still has 23 protons, as its atomic number is 23.)
