(c) (ii) and (iii)
(d) (ii) and (iv)

Solution: Option d) is the answer.

Explanation: Isotopes are elements that have the same atomic number but have different atomic masses, and they are classified as such. Isotopes have the same chemical properties as one another, but their physical qualities are different.
