The two notations that represent isotopes of the same element is $\boxed{_{\text{7}}^{{\text{14}}}{\text{N and }}_{\text{7}}^{{\text{18}}}{\text{N}}}$

Further explanation:

An atom is also written as $_{\text{Z}}^{\text{A}}{\text{X}}$ , where A is the mass number, Z is the atomic number, and X is the letter symbol of the element.

Isotopes:

Atoms of the same element with same atomic number but different mass numbers are called isotopes. Isotopes have the equal number of protons but the number of neutrons is different.

$_{\mathbf{6}}^{{\mathbf{11}}}{\mathbf{C}}$ and $_{\mathbf{6}}^{{\mathbf{12}}}{\mathbf{C}}$ are examples of isotopes. Both are the atoms of the same element carbon. The mass number of $_6^{11}{\text{C}}$ is 11 while that of $_6^{12}{\text{C}}$ is 12. But both of these have the same atomic number and that is 6.

(1) $_{\mathbf{7}}^{{\mathbf{14}}}{\mathbf{ N and }}_{\mathbf{7}}^{{\mathbf{18}}}{\mathbf{N}}$

Here, both elements are the same (nitrogen). The atomic numbers of both nitrogens are same. But the atomic mass or mass number of $_7^{14}{\text{N}}$ is 14 while that of $_7^{18}{\text{N}}$ is 18. So both the notations have the same atomic number and different mass numbers. So this pair completely satisfies the definition of isotopes and therefore it is a correct option.

(2) $_{\mathbf{7}}^{{\mathbf{14}}}{\mathbf{ Nand }}_{{\mathbf{10}}}^{{\mathbf{17}}}{\mathbf{Ne}}$

Here, both elements are not the same. One element is nitrogen while the other one is neon. The atomic numbers of both elements are different. The atomic number of nitrogen atom is 7 while that of neon is 10. The atomic masses of both elements are also different. So this pair does not satisfy the definition of isotopes and therefore, it is an incorrect option.

(3) $_{\mathbf{7}}^{{\mathbf{20}}}{\mathbf{N and }}_{{\mathbf{10}}}^{{\mathbf{20}}}{\mathbf{Ne}}$

Here, both elements are not the same. One element is nitrogen while the other one is neon. The atomic numbers of both elements are different. The atomic number of nitrogen atom is 7 while that of neon is 10. The atomic masses of both elements are same. So this pair does not satisfy the definition of isotopes and therefore it is an incorrect option.

(4) $_{\mathbf{7}}^{{\mathbf{19}}}{\mathbf{N and }}_{{\mathbf{10}}}^{{\mathbf{16}}}{\mathbf{Ne}}$

Answer from: Quest

explanation:

venn diagram is pictorial representation with of circles showing the relation between two finite sets or things. the intersection part of two circles conveys the relation present in between those sets or things.

here in the venn diagram of sand and salt two circles represent sand and salt. but the area falling under the intersection of these circle represents the mixture of sand and salt.

so, in a venn diagram the mixture will be placed in a middle that is in between the intersection of two circles.
