If `A,Z` and `N` denote the mass number, the atomic number, and the neutron number for a given nucleus, we can say that.

A

N = Z + A

B

isobars have the same A but different Z and N

C

isotopes have the same Z but different N and A

D

isotones have the same N but different A and Z

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B, C, D
Statement (a) is incorrect. In fact, A = Z + N. Statements (b), (c) and (d) are correct, they are the definitions of isobar, isotope and isotone.
