Question
Substances which have identical chemical properties but differ in atomic weight are called.

Answer

  1. Isotopes
Explanation:
Isotopes are atoms of the same element having the same numbers of protons, but different numbers of neutrons. They have same chemical properties due to the same electronic configuration but different physical properties.
