Answer:

Isotopes

Step-by-step explanation:

iso means the same like in triangles (isosceles) so the atoms are the same element but different in mass. Since the isotopes have the same number of protons and electrons the isotopes have much the same chemical behavior. Since the isotopes have different numbers of neutrons the nuclear behavior differs.
