  4. D \({ }_9 \mathrm{F}^{19}\) and \({ }_{11} \mathrm{Na}^{24}\) are isotopes
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \({ }_{19} \mathrm{K}^{19}\) and \({ }_{20} \mathrm{Ca}^{40}\) are isotopes

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Isotones are species which have equal number of neutrons. neutrons in \({ }_{19} \mathrm{~K}^{39}=39-19=20\) neutrons in \({ }_{20} \mathrm{Ca}^{40}=40-20=20\).
