Un nucléide est une substance caractérisée par un nombre atomique et un nombre de masse (somme des protons et des neutrons du noyau de ses atomes) alors qu'un élément n'est caractérisé que par son nombre atomique. Les nucléides ayant le même nombre atomique sont dits isotopes. Un élément est en général composé de plusieurs nucléides isotopes. 2, record 1, French, - isotopes
