No nuclear waste is left at the end of which nuclear reaction?
- nuclear fusion reaction
- nuclear fission reaction
- both a & b
- none of these
- N/A
Show Answer
Answer: A Explanation: -
Stable nuclei on bombardment with high speed particles produce radioactive unstable nuclei. This process by artificial means is known as:
- nuclear fusion reaction
- nuclear fission reaction
- nuclear disintegration
- artificial or induced radioactivity
- N/A
Show Answer
Answer: D Explanation: -
Complete and balance the following nuclear equation: 0n1 + 13Al27 →?
11Na23 + 2He5
11Na24 + 2He4
12Mg24 + 2He4
12Mg25 + 1H3
- N/A
Show Answer
Answer: B Explanation: -
13Al27 when bombarded with a neutron gives radioactive 11Na24 which disintegrates spontaneously by emission of a beta-particle and produces:
- 12Mg25
- 11Na23
- 12Mg24
- 14Si28
- 0n1 + 13Al27 11Na24 + 2He4 ; 11Na24 12Mg24 + -1e0

Answer: C Explanation: -
A pair of nuclei which have same number of protons and neutrons but different half-lives are called:
- nuclear isomers
- isobars
- isotones
- isochores
- N/A
Show Answer
Answer: A Explanation: -
The nuclear isomers may be:
- isotopic
- isobaric
- isotopic or isobaric
- none of these
- N/A
Show Answer
Answer: C Explanation: -
In nuclear reactions, a change in mass (Δm) is accompanied by:
radioactive decay
release of energy
transmutation
nuclear disintegration
Energy change is related with mass change by the following Einstein's equation,ΔE =Δmc2
Show Answer
Answer: B Explanation: -
The difference between the calculated and experimental masses of the nucleus is known as;
- mass defect
- mass deficit
- both a & b
- critical mass
- N/A
Show Answer
Answer: C Explanation: -
Mass defect of helium is:
- 0.03040 amu
- 0.00304 amu
- 0.03428 amu
- 0.00388 amu
- Calculated mass of Helium = 4.03428, Experimental mass = 4.00388, Mass defect = 4.03428 - 4.00388 = 0.03040 amu
Show Answer
Answer: A Explanation: -

- nucleon energy
- all of these
- N/A
