Solution
Two isotopes of carbon are `""_6^12C" and """_6^14C`
The electronic configuration of `""_6^12C` is 2, 4.
The electronic configuration of `""_6^14C` is 2, 4.
[Isotopes have the same electronic configuration]
`""_20^40Ca" and """_18^40Ar` are a pair of isobars
The electronic configuration of `""_20^40Ca` is 2, 8, 8, 2.
The electronic configuration of `""_18^40Ar` is 2, 8, 8.
