isotope
英 [ˈaɪ.sə.təʊp]
美 [ˈaɪ.sə.toʊp]
将“isotope”分解为“iso”和“top”部分。“Iso”可以联想到“same”,表示相同;“top”可以联想到“top”这个词,意味着位于顶部或者是最多的一部分。结合这两个部分,可以想象在一个原子中,有一个相同的核,但它的位置(或者说某个特性)是独特的,这样就能记住“isotope”是一个具有相同质子数但中子数不同的原子核。

isotope: [20] The term isotope for a version of an element with a particular atomic weight was coined in 1913 by the British chemist Frederick Soddy. It means literally ‘equal place’ and was formed from two Greek components, the prefix iso- ‘equal’ and the noun tópos ‘place’ (source of English topic). The reason for the coinage was that although isotopes of the same element have different atomic weights, they occupy the ‘same place’ in the periodic table of elements.

- isotope (n.)
- 1913, literally "having the same place," introduced by British chemist Frederick Soddy (1877-1956) on suggestion of Margaret Todd, from Greek isos "equal" (see iso-) + topos "place" (see topos); so called because despite the different atomic weights, the various forms of an element occupy the same place on the periodic table.
