Atoms of different elements with different atomic numbers, having the same mass number is known as ________

A

Isobars

B

Isohalines

C

Isotopes

D

Ion

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Isobars are atoms (nuclides) of different chemical elements that have the same number of nucleons. Correspondingly, isobars differ in atomic number (or number of protons) but have the same mass number. An example of a series of isobars would be `""^40S, ""^40Cl , ""^40 Ar , ""^40K` , and `""^40 Ca`
