Question
Two nuclei have their mass number in the ratio of 1:3. The ratio of their nuclear densities would be
-
1:3
-
3:1
-
(3)1/3 : 1
-
1:1
Solution
D.
1:1
Density of nuclear matter is independent of mass number, so the required ratio is 1:1
Alternative :
A1 : A2 = 1:3
Their radii will be in the ratio
Their nuclear densities will be the same.
