Isotopes of Hydrogen
- Isotopes are variants of a particular chemical element which differ in neutron number, and consequently in nucleon number.
- Hydrogen has three main isotopes:
- Protium (1H): It has 1 proton and 0 neutrons.
- Deuterium (2H or D): It has 1 proton and 1 neutron.
- Tritium (3H or T): It has 1 proton and 2 neutrons.
- Among these, the correct answer is:
- Dubnium (2): It is not an isotope of hydrogen.
- Dubnium is a chemical element with the symbol Db and atomic number 105, which is entirely different from hydrogen.
Therefore, Dubnium is not an isotope of hydrogen.
