- A composed of a proton and a neutron
- B spherical shaped
- C contains more than two nucleons
- D proton and neutron are bound by electrostatic forces
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) composed of a proton and a neutron
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
A deuteron is nucleus of deuterium (a hydrogen isotope); \({ }_1^2 \mathrm{H}\). It is an electron orbiting a proton and a neutron.
