Why do Cl-35 and Cl-37 have the same chemical reactions?

[lionely]

what difference,if any are expected between the chemical reactions of Cl 35 and Cl 37?

I'm not sure how to attempt this question =/

In a nuclear reaction, the atoms would split differently. However, in a purely chemical reaction, there is no difference.

Oh shoot! I got the answer too late, my friend told me since Cl37 is has a greater mass number it would react more slowly than Cl35 since it is heavier.

They are different isotopes of the same element...I would start there.
