Solution

The correct option is C Protium, deuterium and tritium
Hydrogen has three naturally occurring isotopes: $^{1} H$ (protium), $^{2} H$ (deuterium), and $^{3} H$ (tritium). These isotopes form naturally in nature. Protium and deuterium are stable. Tritium is radioactive and has a half-life of about 12 years.

Hence, option D is correct.
