D
none of these
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Atoms of different elements having different atomic no. but same mass no. are called isobars.

Detailed explanation-2: -Isotopes contain the same nuclear charge but different mass numbers. Isotopes have the same atomic number and different mass numbers. Atomic number refers to the number of electrons and protons in the atom. Isotopes have the same number of electrons and protons but differences in the number of neutrons.

Detailed explanation-3: -Isotopes are atomic species of the same element that differ in atomic mass; that is, nuclei with a given number of protons but differing numbers of neutrons.

Detailed explanation-4: -Atoms of different elements with different atomic numbers, which have the same mass number, are known as isobars.

Detailed explanation-5: -The atoms of different elements with the same mass number, but different atomic numbers are called isobars.
