Question

Obtain approximately the ratio of the nuclear radii of the gold isotope 197 79 Au and the silver isotope.

Philoid · Accepted Answer

We know that, R A^1/3 (where R is nuclear radii and A is the mass number)

∵ Hence,

So, the ratio of their radii will be

= 1.2256

Obtain approximately the ratio of the nuclear radii of the gold isotope 19779Au and the silver isotope.
