If the nucleus Al presubscript 13 presuperscript 27 has a nuclear radius of about 3.6 fm, then Te presubscript 52 presuperscript 125 would have its radius approximately as: 

  • 6.0 fm

  • 9.6 fm

  • 12.0 fm

  • 4.8 fm

Solution

A.

6.0 fm

If R is the radius of the nucleus, the corresponding volume 4πR3/3 has been found to be proportional to A.
This relationship is expressed in inverse form as
 R = Ro A1/3
The value of Ro is 1.2 x 10-15 m, ie, 1.2 fm
