Stable Isotopes

Most popular isotopes

You can select an isotope in our periodic table below

Stable isotopes are chemical isotopes that are not radioactive (they have not been observed to decay, though a few may be theoretically unstable with extremely long half-lives)

By this definition, there are 256 known stable isotopes across 80 elements, each having one or more stable isotopes. About two-thirds of these elements have more than one stable isotope. One element, tin, has ten stable isotopes
The most commonly analyzed stable isotopes are oxygen, carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen, and sulfur. These isotopic systems have been studied for many years to investigate isotopic fractionation in natural systems because they are relatively easy to measure

Recent advances in mass spectrometry (e.g., multi-collector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry) now allow for the measurement of heavy stable isotopes such as iron, copper, zinc, molybdenum, and others
