Alike: in most chemical properties
Different: the atomic mass variation of course means a difference in weight, but in some extreme cases, some isotopes can be stable while others are radio-active, and will thus turn into other elements over time. Nuclear properties are thus different, and some physical properties, like boiling and fusing point, will differ slightly.

Well isotopes define is the same element but different number of neutrons. Therefore, an isotope can be unstable.

They tend to have the same chemical properties, but the masses are slightly different. Some elements have both stable isotopes and unstable isotopes, which are radioactive.

They are alike in that they have the same number of protons and electrons. They are different in that they have a different amount of neutrons.

They have the same number of protons, but they have a different number of neutrons changing the overall weight of the element.

Hi. One may be radioactive and the other stable, for instance. Heavy water has excess neutrons in the hydrogen and acts very different from H2O.

these have same number of protons in their nuclei i.e same atomic number but their nuclei have different number of neutrons i,e their atomic weights are unequal.
