One of the oxygen atoms has gained one electron

B

one of the oxygen atoms has gained two neutrons

C

The two oxyen atomis are isotopes

D

The two oxygen atoms are isobars

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
c

correct answer c The two oxygen atoms are the isotopes .These are the different atoms of the same element which have same number of electrons (or atomic number ) but different number of neutrons
