13: Nuclei
- #11Obtain approximately the ratio of the nuclear radii of the gold isotope
and the silver isotope
.
Ans : Nuclear radius of the gold isotope
= RAu
Nuclear radius of the silver isotope
= RAg
Mass number of gold, AAu = 197
Mass number of silver, AAg = 107
The ratio of the radii of the two nuclei is related with their mass numbers as:
Hence, the ratio of the nuclear radii of the gold and silver isotopes is about 1.23.
