The stability of an isotope is based on its
(1) number of neutrons, only
(2) number of protons, only
(3) ratio of neutrons to protons
(4) ratio of electrons to protons

Respuesta :

Option 4. ratio of electrons to protons

Isotope that has atomic number of 82 is stable. An element that has an atomic number ∠82 more stable except Tc and Pm. Also there is the concept that isotopes consisting a combination of even-even,even-odd,odd-even, and odd-odd are all stable. Many isotopes with no magic numbers of nucleons are stable
