Detailed explanation-1: -Isotopes are the atoms of the same element; they have the same atomic number but different mass numbers. Isotopes have a different number of neutrons in their nucleus.

Detailed explanation-2: -Isotopes are atoms with different atomic masses which have the same atomic number. The atoms of different isotopes are atoms of the same chemical element; they differ in the number of neutrons in the nucleus.

Detailed explanation-3: -Isotopes of any given element all contain the same number of protons, so they have the same atomic number (for example, the atomic number of helium is always 2). Isotopes of a given element contain different numbers of neutrons, therefore, different isotopes have different mass numbers.

Detailed explanation-4: -Isotopes are atoms of the same element that have different numbers of neutrons but the same number of protons and electrons. The difference in the number of neutrons between the various isotopes of an element means that the various isotopes have different masses.

Detailed explanation-5: -Isotopes are members of a family of an element that all have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons.
