    The radioactive isotope\[_{27}^{60}Co\] which is used in the treatment of cancer can be made by (n, p)reaction. For this reaction the target nucleus is:                                                                                                                           

    A) \[_{28}^{59}\text{Ni}\]

    B)                \[_{27}^{59}\text{Co}\]       

    C) \[_{28}^{60}\text{Ni}\]        

    D) \[_{27}^{60}\text{Co}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[_{28}N{{i}^{60}}{{+}_{0}}{{n}^{1}}{{\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}}_{27}}C{{o}^{60}}+\underset{(p)}{\mathop{_{1}{{H}^{1}}}}\,\] (\[n\], p means that neutron attacks and proton liberates)
