Nuclei

Question:

You are given two elements whose radii are in ratio 3:7. What will the nuclear density of the former be given by ?

Options:

5.2 x 1012 Kg m-3

2.3 x 1017 Kg m-3

2.3 x 1012 Kg m-3

5.2 x 1017 m-3

Correct Answer:

2.3 x 1017 Kg m-3

Explanation:

Nuclear density is constant and is 2.3 x 1017 Kg m-3Think of nuclei of all matter as a liquid drop of constant density of the given value.

Also, option 1 and 3 have order 10-12 and that of nucleus is 10-17. Option 4 has the wrong units. So this leaves us with option 2 alone.
