    Which one of the following has the highest neutrons ratio?

    A) \[_{92}{{U}^{235}}\]             

    B) \[_{8}{{O}^{16}}\]

    C) \[_{2}H{{e}^{4}}\]                 

    D) \[_{26}F{{e}^{56}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Number of neutrons \[= Mass number - Atomic number\] The representation \[_{92}{{U}^{235}}\] shows 235 is mass number and 92 is atomic number. Hence, number of neutrons \[=235-92=143\] \[_{8}{{O}^{16}}\] has 16 as mass number and 8 as atomic number. Number of neutrons =16-8=8 \[_{2}H{{e}^{4}}\] has 4 as mass number and 2 as atomic number. Number of neutrons \[=4-2=2\] \[_{26}F{{e}^{56}}\] has 56 as mass number and 26 as atomic number. Number of neutrons \[= 56 - 26 = 30\] Hence, \[_{92}{{U}^{235}}\] has highest neutrons ratio.
