Question

The physical properties of isotopes differ due to

Answer 1

Isotopes

• “Atoms with identical atomic numbers but different mass numbers are known as Isotopes”.
• The physical properties of isotopes differ due to differences in mass number.

Examples of isotopes

• ${}_6{}^{12}\mathrm{C},{}_6{}^{13}\mathrm{C},{}_6{}^{14}\mathrm{C}$ are examples of isotopes.

So, the physical properties of isotopes differ due to mass numbers.
