Isotopes of an element have nuclei with the same number of protons (the same atomic number) but different numbers of neutrons Neutrons (:

The main reason is that many elements exist in several isotopic forms. These are atoms with the same number of protons and electrons but different numbers of neutrons. Since the atomic mass is essentially based on the number of protons and neutrons in each atom, the element will exist in several forms with different masses. The atomic mass is the average of the masses of these isotopes, weighted together according to their abundance.
equal sets with exactly the same elements and number of elements.equivalent sets with numbers of elements
The average of a set of numbers is the sum of the numbers in the set divided by the number of elements in the set.
Dodging numbers are numbers which some young children miss out, by mistake, when they are learning to count. Different children will miss out different numbers.
