Isotopes and relative atomic mass

What is meant by isotopes of an element?

• Atoms with different numbers of protons

• Atoms with different numbers of electrons

• Atoms with different numbers of neutrons

• Atoms with different atomic numbers

What effect do isotopes have on the chemical properties (reactions) of an element?

• Isotopes have different reactions because they have different masses

• Isotopes have different reactions because they have different number of electrons

• Isotopes have the same reactions because they have the same masses

• Isotopes have the same reactions because they have the same number of electrons
