Does neon have any isotopes and why?
Neon isotopes can be used in dating meteoric rock and to investigate the creation of some isotopes in space.
Which has more isotopes neon -10 or neon-12?
Neon has the atomic number 10 which means it has 10 protons, it cannot have 12. Different isotopes of an element have the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons. There are three stable isotopes of neon.
How many neutrons does neon have?
Neon has three stable isotopes, and they are 20Ne, 21Ne and 22Ne. They have 10, 11 and 12 neutrons, respectively. There are a number of other isotopes of neon, and they can be found by following the link below to the Wikipedia article on neon.To answer this correctly, it is necessary to know which isotope of neon is considered. Neon has three stable isotopes, and they are Ne-20, Ne-21 and Ne-22. They have 10, 11 and 12 neutrons, respectively.However, if isotope is not mentioned, then the answer will be 10 neutrons for Ne-20 as that is the most abundant isotope of neon.
Do neon atoms have common isotopes?
Yes Neon has isotopes from 16-34.
What are neons isotopes?
Neon 16 through to Neon 34 have been synthesised/discovered. Neon 9 through to Neon 11 are the naturally occurring isotopes, all of which are stable. Neon 9 comprises over 90% of natural Neon in the air. Neon 15 is the most recently reported and has not been verified (as of may 2014). Other isotopes, both heavier and lighter, could be synthesised in the future, increasing the isotope count.

Which elements is stable neon carbon boron or fluorine?
Of those, neon is the most chemically stable (least reactive).But for elements, the term stable usually means non-radioactive, and all of these elements have stable isotopes.
How many isotopes does the carbon group have?
it has 3 stable isotopes
How many neutrons does neon have?
Neon has three stable isotopes, and they are 20Ne, 21Ne and 22Ne. They have 10, 11 and 12 neutrons, respectively.

What is the half-life of neon?
Neon is an inert gas, with three stable isotopes, Ne20, Ne21, and Ne22. In my (rather old) reference, there are unstable isotopes known from Ne17 through Ne19, and from Ne23 through Ne25. Neon is a well known gas through its use in advertising signs. In physics, it enjoys the position of being the first discovery of isotopes of stable elements. It is the second-lightest of the inert gases, and may be the least reactive element. Neon is a useful and cheap cryogenic refrigerant.

Does radioactive isotopes have a stable nuclei?
Radioactive isotopes are not stable.
Is the element hydrogen stable?
The isotopes protium (H-1) and deuterium (H-2) are stable; tritium (H-3) and artificial isotopes are unstable.
How are stable isotopes used in medicine?
Stable isotopes are used as tracers.
