Question 14 Which statement about isotopes of the same element is NOT correct? O The all have the exact same atomic mass. O They have different numbers of neutrons. O They have the same number of protons. O They have the same number of electrons. DELL
Atomic Structure
The basic structure of an atom is defined as the component-level of atomic structure of an atom. Precisely speaking an atom consists of three major subatomic particles which are protons, neutrons, and electrons. Many theories have been stated for explaining the structure of an atom.
Shape of the D Orbital
Shapes of orbitals are an approximate representation of boundaries in space for finding electrons occupied in that respective orbital. D orbitals are known to have a clover leaf shape or dumbbell inside where electrons can be found.
Isotopes are elements having same atomic number but different mass number.(i.e. same number of protons and electrons but different number of neutrons)
Atomic number = number of electrons
= number of protons
Atomic mass = Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons
