A nuclide is defined as?

Nuclide, , also called nuclear species, species of atom as characterized by the number of protons, the number of neutrons, and the energy state of the nucleus. ... The term nuclide is not synonymous with isotope, which is any member of a set of nuclides having the same atomic number but differing mass number.

Explanation:

"among the transition metal elements, manganese and zinc have a slight lowering of electronegativities. the reason behind this is that the nuclear charges of these elements are slightly weaker than the other transition metal elements due to the way their valence electrons are filled up. both manganese and zinc have their valence electrons filled up to the 4th shell with 1 pair of electrons (4s2) completely occupying it. although the electrons in the 3rd shell (3d) are yet to be paired since the outer most shell is filled up, the ability of the nucleus to attract electrons is lessened. hence,   the electronegativity (or the ability to attract electrons) is lessened."
