An isotope is an element with different atomic mass.

We have,
Atomic mass = no. of protons + no. of neutrons 
Now, we know, protons never change.....so the only thing that changes is neutrons if we want different atomic mass.

Soooooooo,

The answer is "D. <span>A form of an atom with a different number of neutrons"

The answer is not A. because same element with different number of electron is ion.

The answer is not B. because if it has different number of proton....it is going to be a different element. Just like our fingerprints, we can say that protons are fingerprints of element. No. of protons never change.

The answer is not C. because again talking about electrons.

Two identical 732.0 L tanks each contain 212.0 g of gas at 293 K, with neon in one tank and nitrogen in the other. Based on the
Vladimir [108]

Answer: (a) Neon, Nitrogen; (b) Neon, Nitrogen; (c) Neon is lower than Nitrogen; (d) It doesn't affect;

Explanation: The kinetic-molecular theory studies the behavior of particles under pre-determinated situation. In cases of gases, the particles moving around colliding with each other and the walls of the container, without loss of energy. In the case in question, all the parameters are the same (same temperature, volume and pressure), except for the gases, which has different molar masses. In this sense, Neon has lower average speed due to its molar mass being higher, which means, its particles moves slower for being heavier. Related to pressure, as velocity is lower, it collides less with the walls of the tank, and so pressure is lower. For density, it doesn't affect the behavior of the system nor the kinetic energy.
