Two nuclei have their mass numbers in the ratio of 1:31: 3. The ratio of their nuclear densities would be

Options

  1. A1:31: 3
  2. B3:13: 1
  3. C(3)1/3:1(3)^{1 / 3}: 1
  4. D1:11: 1

Correct answer

D. 1:11: 1

Step-by-step solution

Density of nuclear matter is independent of mass number, so the required ratio is 1:11: 1. Alternative : A1:A2=1:3A_1: A_2=1: 3 Their radii will be in the ratio R0A11/3:R0A21/3=1:31/3 Density =A43πR3∴ρA1:ρA2=143πR03⋅13:343πR03(31/3)3\begin{gathered} R_0 A_1^{1 / 3}: R_0 A_2^{1 / 3}=1: 3^{1 / 3} \\ \text{ Density }=\frac{A}{\frac{4}{3} \pi R^3} \\ \therefore \rho_{A_1}: \rho_{A_2}=\frac{1}{\frac{4}{3} \pi R_0^3 \cdot 1^3}: \frac{3}{\frac{4}{3} \pi R_0^3\left(3^{1 / 3}\right)^3} \end{gathered} Their nuclear densities will be the same.
