Question:

Isobars have:

Options:

Same number of protons

Same atomic number

Same number of Electrons

Same mass number

Correct Answer:

Same mass number

Explanation:

The correct answer is option 4. Same mass number.

**Same mass number**

Isobars are atoms of different elements that have the same mass number but different atomic numbers. The mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons in an atomic nucleus. Isobars, therefore, have the same total number of nucleons (protons + neutrons) but differ in the number of protons, leading to distinct atomic numbers and chemical properties.
