Two nuclei, Aluminium () and Tellurium (), have mass numbers and respectively. What is the ratio of their nuclear radii and the ratio of their nuclear densities?
Options
- A and
- B and
- C and
- D and
Correct answer
B. and
Step-by-step solution
The nuclear radius is related to the mass number by the empirical formula:
The ratio of the radii of Aluminium and Tellurium is:
Nuclear density is approximately constant for all nuclei and is independent of the mass number . Therefore, the ratio of their nuclear densities is .
