Concept explainers
(a)
The ranking of the nuclei by the number of protons in the nucleus.
(a)
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
The number of protons in the nucleus remains same and only number of neutrons changes in the nucleus.
The number of protons in the nucleus of
Conclusion:
Thus, the ranking of nuclei according to number of proton in nucleus is C, D, A, B.
(b)
The ranking of the nuclei by the number of neutrons in the nucleus.
(b)
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
The number of neutrons in the nucleus of atom.is equal to the difference of mass number and atomic number.
The atomic number and mass number of
The atomic number and mass number of
The atomic number and mass number of
The atomic number and mass number of
Conclusion:
Thus, the ranking of nuclei according to number of neutrons in nucleus is B, A = D, C.
