MCQ
22Ne nucleus, after absorbing energy, decays into two $\alpha$-particles and an unknown nucleus. The unknown nucleus is:
  • A
    Nitrogen
  • B
    Carbon
  • C
    Boron
  • D
    Oxygen

Answer

  1. Carbon

Explanation:

22Ne decays

$\alpha$particle = He2+

Mass No = 4

p = 2, n = 2

So, New mass no. = 22 − 8 = 14

Atomic No. = 10 − 4 = 6

So, the new element is 6​C14
