Solution
The correct option is C
Statement 1 is
correct but Statement 2 is not correct.
A nucleon is a collective name for two important subatomic particles: neutrons and protons. A nucleon is one of either of the two types of subatomic particles (neutrons and protons) which are located in the nucleus of atoms.
electrons are located in the principal energy levels of the atoms so statement 2 is not correct because neutron and proton stay in the nucleus of an atom.
