उत्तर
Alpha particle decay of `(""_86^220"Rn")` is shown by the following nuclear reaction.
\[\ce{^220_86Rn -> ^216_84Po + ^4_2He}\]
It is given that:
Mass of `(""_86^220 "Rn")` = 220.01137 u
Mass of `(""_84^216 "Po")` = 216.00189 u
∴ Q-value = [220.01137 - (216.00189 +.00260)] × 931.5
≈ 641 MeV
Kinetic energy of the α-particle = `((220-4)/220) xx 6.41`
= 6.29 MeV
