Q.

Assume that protons and neutrons have equal masses. Mass of a nucleon is 1.6×10-27kg and radius of nucleus is 1.5×10-15A1/3m. The approximate ratio of the nuclear density and water density is n×1013. The value of n is _______.              [2023]


Ans.

(11)

Density of nuclei=mass of nucleivolume of nuclei

ρ=1.6×10-27A43π(1.5×10-15)3A=0.113×1018 kg/m3

ρw=103 kg/m3

Hence  ρρw=11.31×1013
