Dalton said that all atoms of one element are identical. they are chemically identical but not identical in mass. he did not know of isotopes, which are chemically identical atoms with different numbers of neutral neutrons. ex: all carbon atoms act the same chemically but some mass at 12, others at 14.

Why is an element's atomic mess not listed as a whole number on the periodic?
Because it is an average of the masses of the isotopes of the element, each of which has a different atomic mass (not mess!)
What mathematical statements are equations you 3x 2 12 9 k 6 m m 105?
None of them because there is no equality sign
How many visitors does discovery cove have per year?
Discovery Cove limits the number of visitors per day to 1000. So that would mean that in any given year they would have over 300,000 visitors. Because of the daily limit it is advisable to make reservations.

What is the conclusion for discovery of zero?
Zero was not discovered because it was conceived by ancient mathematicians thus making arithmetic easier for positional place value purposes as for example 23 is different to 203.
How are radioactive isotopes different from isotopes?
Both isotopes and radioactive isotopes are pretty much the same but radioactive isotopes are better because it can be used to make medicine.
Why is the world different because of madame curie?
Madame Marie Curie's achievements include the creation of a theory of radioactivitytechniques for isolating radioactive isotopes, and the discovery of two new elements, polonium and radium. It was also under her direction that the world's first studies were conducted into the treatment of cancers, using radioactive isotopes.
How are arsenic's isotopes helpful?
Arsenic's isotopes are helpful because they fight off cancer.
Statements with superlatives are often false because?
Statements with superlatives are often false because strong statements are easy to disprove.
Is Dakota Boyd related to Jesse James?
yes because Boyds are cousins to the Daltons who are cousins to the James
What do elements of isotopes have differently?
Because of the difference in mass number. Isotopes must have different numbers of neutrons.
Why are isotopes unstable?
because they are moving to Albuquerque
Why are Daltons symbol not used in chemistry?
Dalton's symbols are not used in chemistry because it is very difficult to represent in chemistry
Would isotopes of the same element have the same number of electrons?
Yea because isotopes only differ in their # of neutrons, not electrons
What are the isotopes of cadmium?
See the link below, because cadmium has an enormous number of isotopes: 8 are natural, 30 are artificial.
Should density for aluminum be the same for all aluminum samples?
No. Because Al has a large no. of isotopes. (i think 22 isotopes).
How are isotopes different than naturally occurring elements?
Isotopes of an element have different masses because their nuclei have different numbers of neutrons.
