Atoms of the same element with different masses are called:
Correct answer: B. Isotopes
- A. Isobars
- B. Isotopes
- C. Isotones
- D. Isomers
Explanation
Isotopes are atoms that have the same number of protons (making them the same element) but different numbers of neutrons, which results in different atomic masses.

About Fundamental Concepts of Chemistry
Mole calculations connect mass, number of particles and Avogadro's number, while balanced equations provide the mole ratios used in stoichiometry. Questions cover limiting and excess reactants, theoretical yield and percentage yield, including identifying which reactant is consumed first and comparing the actual product with the maximum possible product.
