EXPLANATION:

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.
