The nucleus `""_10^23"Ne"` decays by `beta^(-)`emission. Write down the β decay equation and determine the maximum kinetic energy of the electrons emitted. Given that:
`"m"(""_10^23 "Ne")` = 22.994466 u
`"m"(""_11^23 "Na")` = 22.989770 u.
With the help of a suitable example and an equation, explain the term pair production.
Two nuclei have mass numbers in the ratio 1: 2. What is the ratio of their nuclear densities?
The mass number of a nucleus is equal to the number of:-
Are the nucleons fundamental particles, or do they consist of still smaller parts? One way to find out is to probe a nucleon just as Rutherford probed an atom. What should be the kinetic energy of an electron for it to be able to probe a nucleon? Assume the diameter of a nucleon to be approximately 10–15 m.
Before the neutrino hypothesis, the beta decay process was throught to be the transition, `n -> p + vece`. If this was true, show that if the neutron was at rest, the proton and electron would emerge with fixed energies and calculate them. Experimentally, the electron energy was found to have a large range.
Distinguish between isotopes and isobars.
Experiments on the scattering of alpha particles showed that the radius of a nucleus is smaller than the radius of an atom by a factor of about:
A new type of neutral particle whose mass is very nearly the same as that of a proton is called a:
Nuclides with the same neutron number but different atomic number are called:
