(Atomic Masses and Composition of Nucleus)
1. In nature, ratio of isotopes of Boron, 5B10 and 5B11, is (given that atomic weight of boron is 10.81)
(1) 81 : 19 (2) 21 : 44 (3) 19 : 81 (4) 44 : 21
Sol. Answer (3)
Atomic weight = 10.81
Weighted mean is hence = 10.81
10 × x + 11 × (100 − x )
10.81 =
100
1081 = 10x + 1100 – 11x
x = 19

nucleons can share energy and momentum to conserve energy as well as momentum and both the decays
are in dynamic equilibrium.
Sol. Answer (1)
3. A : Exothermic reactions are possible when two light nuclei fuse or when a heavy nucleus undergoes fission
into intermediate mass nuclei.
R : The nature of nuclear binding energy curve is such that it rises for lighter nuclei and slightly decreasing
for heavier nuclei.
Sol. Answer (1)
4. A : For fusion, the light nuclei must have sufficient initial energy to cross the Coulomb barrier. Hence, fusion
requires high temperature, however, the actual temperature required is somewhat less than expected
classically.
R : It is due to quantum mechanical tunneling of the potential barrier.
Sol. Answer (1)
5. A : Only in low or medium energy nuclear reactions, the number of protons and number of neutrons are
separately conserved.
R : In high energy reactions, protons and neutrons can be converted into other particles and a new quantum
number, the Baryon number is however, always conserved.
Sol. Answer (2)
6. A : Nuclear density is almost same for all nuclei.

R : The radius (r) of a nucleus depends only on the mass number (A) as r  A1/3.

7. A : During radioactive disintegration an -particle and a-particle do not emit simultaneously from any nucleus.
R : An -particle emits from a nucleus when the N/Z ratio is less than the stability range (where N = number
of neutrons and Z = number of protons in a nucleus).
Sol. Answer (2)
The two common modes of radioactive decay are alpha and beta types. In both these decays the other
particle is not ejected.
8. A : In -decay an electron is emitted by the nucleus.

R : Electrons are not present inside the nucleus.
Sol. Answer (2)
9. A : A radioactive substance has half life of 1 hour. Therefore, if two nuclei of the substance are present initially,
after 1 hour only one will remain undissociated.
R : When a nucleus makes a transition from excited state to ground state, it emits a -particle.
Sol. Answer (4)
Both the statements are wrong. Nuclear reaction being spontaneous may occur at any time.
10. A : Fast moving neutrons do not cause fission of a uranium nucleus.

R : A fast moving neutron spends very little time inside the nucleus.
Sol. Answer (1)
