[Closed] 10sp Chainrings: interchangeable with 9sp?

Anyone know if I can buy an off the peg standard chainring and put it into a 10speed groupset? Are 10sp rings thinner to accommodate the chain?

9 and 10 speed are interchangeable. The inner pitch bit of a 9 and 10 speed chain is the same, and that's what counts for chainrings.

does that mean you can put 10 speed rings on 9 speed cranks?
