Isotopes

Vedclass · Answer

(A) $_{17}^{35}Cl$ and $_{17}^{37}Cl$ are known as isotopes. Isotopes are atoms of the same element having the same atomic number $(Z = 17)$ but different mass numbers ($A = 35$ and $A = 37$). This difference in mass number is due to the presence of a different number of neutrons in their nuclei ($35 - 17 = 18$ neutrons in $_{17}^{35}Cl$ and $37 - 17 = 20$ neutrons in $_{17}^{37}Cl$).

What are $_{17}^{35}Cl$ and $_{17}^{37}Cl$? Why?
