Are the 2n chromosome number and the diploid chromosome number the same thing? If not, please explain how they differ from each other.

In any given asexually reproducing species, the chromosome number is always the same. In sexually reproducing organisms, the number of chromosomes in the body (somatic) cells typically is diploid (2n; a pair of each chromosome), twice the haploid (1n) number found in the sex cells, or gametes.
