    Here's what I get

    Explanation:

    Carbon has 15 isotopes ranging from C-8 to C-22 but only two of them (C-12 and C-13) are stable. C-12 is the more abundant of the two.

    Nitrogen has 16 isotopes ranging from N-10 to N-25, but only two of them (N-14 and N-15) are stable. N-14 is the more abundant of the two.

    If you are talking about C-12 and N 14, we can say that

    C-12 has 6p and 6n N-14 has 7p and 7n N-14 has one more proton and one more neutron than C-14
