Correct Option - 4
Detailed Solution:

A → 1 0 5 B + 1 1 5 C

⇒ Q = [ 1 0 5 * 6 . 4 + 1 1 5 * 6 . 4 ] − [ 2 2 0 * 5 . 6 ] M e v

Q = 176 MeV

N = N0e–λt

->t = λN = N0/e

So number of nuclei decayed = N0 – N

= N0 (1- 1/e)

Density of nuclei is order of 1017 kg m-3.

Two radioactive substances X and Y originally have N1 and N2 nuclei respectively. Half life of X is half of the life of Y. After three half lives of Y, number of nuclei of both are equal.

The ratio  N 1 N 2  will be equal to:

VB
Vishal Baghel

Number of half lives of Y = 3

Number of half lives of X = 6 [As half life of X is half of that of Y].

N 1 2 6 = N 2 2 3 ⇒ N 1 N 2 = 8
