Solution

The correct option is D 13957La and 14058Ce
Isotones are species that have the same number of neutrons but different atomic numbers.
Number of neutrons = mass number – atomic number
Number of neutrons in 13856Ba = 138 – 56 = 82
Number of neutrons in 13957La = 139 – 57 = 82
Number of neutrons in 14058Ce = 140 – 58 = 82
