Answer : The correct option is, forms of the same element that differ in the number of neutrons in each atom
Explanation :
Isotopes : It is defined as the forms of same element that have the same number of protons and electrons but differ in the number of neutrons.
For example : Carbon-12, carbon-13 and carbon-14 is an isotopes due to the same number of protons and electrons and different number of neutrons.
Carbon-12
Atomic number = 6
Atomic mass = 12
Atomic number = Number of protons = Number of electrons = 6
Number of neutrons = Atomic mass - Atomic number = 12 - 6 = 6
Carbon-13
Atomic number = 6
Atomic mass = 13
Atomic number = Number of protons = Number of electrons = 6
Number of neutrons = Atomic mass - Atomic number = 13 - 6 = 7
Carbon-14
Atomic number = 6
Atomic mass = 14
Atomic number = Number of protons = Number of electrons = 6
Number of neutrons = Atomic mass - Atomic number = 14 - 6 = 8
The correct answer is option B, that is, CO + H2O → H2 + CO2
The redox reactions are regarded as the chemical reactions in which one reactant goes through the process of reduction and one reactant goes through the process of oxidation. The reduction reactions are the reactions in which gain of electrons occurs, while oxidation reactions are the reactions in which loss of electrons occurs.
From the mentioned options, only option B, that is, CO + H2O → H2 + CO2 is a kind of redox reaction. In this, the carbon is getting oxidized from +2 to +4 oxidation state, and hydrogen is getting reduced from +1 to 0 oxidation state. Hence, this reaction can be regarded as a redox reaction.

Boron trichloride has a simple molecular structure,
whereas sodium chloride has a giant ionic lattice
structure. The ionic bonding between oppositely
charged ions in NaCl is stronger than the covalent
intramolecular bonding in BCl3. Therefore, less energy
is required to break the intramolecular covalent bonds in
BCl3, hence a lower melting temperature.
