Respuesta :

The set of symbols that represents isotopes has been 84/38 M 86/38 M 87/38 M. Thus, option D is correct.

The isotopes are the elements with same atomic number, but different mass number. In an isotope [tex]\rm ^a_bX[/tex], a has been the atomic mass, and b has been the atomic number.

The isotopes will have same value for b, while different values for a.

In the following given sets:

A. 50/19 L 50/20 L 50/21 L

It has same number of mass the atomic number has been different. Thus, the set not represents isotopes.

B. 138/59 Q 133/55 Q 133/54 Q

The given elements, has different atomic number, and different mass number. Thus the set did not represents the isotopes.

C. 91/42 J 92/42 J 93/40 J

The given elements, has different atomic number, and different mass number.Thus the set did not represents the isotopes.

D. 84/38 M 86/38 M 87/38 M

The given set has same atomic number with different mass number.Thus, the set has been the representation of isotopes.

The set of symbols that represents isotopes has been 84/38 M 86/38 M 87/38 M. Thus, option D is correct.
