Question
Choose the CORRECT statement(s)
Options
A. Mass of products formed is less that the original mass in nuclear fission and nuclear reactions.
B.Binding every per nucleon increases in α - decay and β - decay
C.mass number is conserved in all nuclear reactions.
D.atomic number is conserved in all nuclear reactions.
Solution
Fusion and fission are always exothermic and & decay will result in more stable product.
Mass number is conserved but atomic number is not conserved.
, = M + 0 and A may not be equal to B + C
Mass number is conserved but atomic number is not conserved.
