प्रश्न
The composition of the nuclei of two atomic species X and Y are given as under
| X | Y | |
| Protons | 6 | 6 |
| Neutrons | 6 | 8 |
Give the mass numbers of X and Y. What is the relation between the two species?

उत्तर
Mass number of X = Number of protons + Number of neutrons
= 6 + 6
= 12
Mass number of Y = Number of protons + Number of neutrons
= 6 + 8
= 14
These two atomic species X and Y have the same atomic number, but different mass numbers. Hence, they are isotopes.
