Explanation / Answer

. Isotopes of the same element differ only in the number of electrons they contain.== FALSE

. Isotopes of the same element usually have the same properties. == TRUE.

An isotope of an atom with a larger number of neutrons is physically larger than an atom that contains fewer neutrons.== FALSE.... Atom size is a function of the number of electrons

d. There are no isotopes having 3 or more naturally occurring isotopes. == FALSE.

There are some isotopes with 4 or 5 or more stable isotopes. For instance, Ti has 5 stable isotopes.

e, Isotopes of the same element have the same mass. == FALSE.... different isotopes of the same element have different numbers of neutrons, and so the isotopes have different masses

Ions differ from atoms in their numbers of electrons

Eg: Cl and Cl-

Mg+2

is the answer

Protons - 12

Electrons - 10

Neutrons - 14 [ Isotope of Mg ]
