Isotopes are atoms of the same element that differ in the number of neutrons.
Remember that all the atoms of an element have the same number of protons. So the only difference between isotopes of an element is the number of neutrons.
86 Sr means that the mass number of this isotope is 86. Also, remember that the mass number is the number of protons plus the number of neutrons.
87 Sr means that the mass number of this isotope is 87.
So, 86 Sr and 87 Sr differ 1 neutron.
Answer: 1 neutron
Equal is the answer

<span>The following is the role of NaCl and EDTA in DNA isolation, hope it helps:
NaCl provides Na+ ions that will block negative charge from phosphates on DNA.
Negatively charged phosphates on DNA cause molecules to repel each other. The Na+ ions will form an ionic bond with the negatively charged phosphates on the DNA, neutralizing the negative charges and allowing the DNA molecules to come together.</span>
