State
Isotopes are atoms of the same element that share the same number of protons but differ in their number of neutrons.
Show
Carbon-12 has six neutrons and carbon-14 has eight, though both are carbon with six protons each.
Watch for
Differing neutron counts change an atom's mass, not the element it belongs to.
