₉₂U²³⁵ undergoes successive disintegrations with the end product of ₈₂P²⁰³. The number of α and β-particles emitted are
Options
(a) α=8,β=6
(b) α=3,β=3
(c) α=6,β=4
(d) α=6,β=0
Correct Answer:
α=8,β=6
Explanation:
₉₂U²³⁵ → end product ₈₂P²°³ α and β emitted.
ΔA = 235 – 203 = 32
Therefore, 8 alpha particles are emitted. The charge should be 92 – 16 = 76.
But as the final charge is 82, six β⁻ particles had been emitted to make up the final atomic number Z = 82.
.·. 8 alpha particles and six β⁻ have been emitted.
