Consider the following statements ($X$ and $Y$ stand for two different elements):
$(I)$ ${ }_{32}^{65} X$ and ${ }_{33}^{65} Y$ are isotopes.
$(II)$ ${ }_{42}^{86} X$ and ${ }_{42}^{85} Y$ are isotopes.
$(III)$ ${ }_{85}^{174} X$ and ${ }_{88}^{177} Y$ have the same number of neutrons.
$(IV)$ ${ }_{92}^{235} X$ and ${ }_{94}^{235} Y$ are isobars.
Which of the above statements are correct?

  • A
    Only statements $II$ and $IV$ are correct
  • B
    Only statements $I, II$ and $IV$ are correct
  • C
    Only statements $II, III$ and $IV$ are correct
