Explain why isotopes of the same element behave differently in nuclear reactions but not in chemical reactions

Here are some different options of things you can expand upon in your response:

Isotopes of the same element differ only in neutron numbers. 

Nuclear reactions involve changes to the protons or neutrons in an atom’s nucleus, but not changes to its electrons.

Chemical reactions involve changes to the electrons in atoms, but not changes to its protons or neutrons.

Isotope behavior only differs when a reaction involves neutrons.

The nuclear core additionally contains neutrons. In customary concoction responses, neutron number does not make a difference. This is on the grounds that substance responses include just electrons. Be that as it may, in atomic responses, distinctive isotopes of a similar component can carry on in an unexpected way.

Arsenic produces a blue flame when heated. Calcium produces an orange-red flame. Which of these best explains why this differenc
MrMuchimi

Flame colors are produced from the movement of the electrons in the metal ions present in the compounds. When you heat it, the electrons gain energy and can jump into any of the empty orbitals at higher levels Each of these jumps involves a specific amount of energy being released as light energy, and each corresponds to a particular color. As a result of all these jumps, a spectrum of colored lines will be produced. The color you see will be a combination of all these individual colors.
