    Two nuclei have their mass numbers in the ratio of 1 : 3. The ratio of their, nuclear densities would be

    A) 1 : 3                                       

    B) 3 : 1

    C) \[{{(3)}^{1/3}}:1\]                           

    D) 1 : 1

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Density of nuclear matter is independent of mass number, so the required ratio is 1 : 1. Alternative:\[{{A}_{1}}:{{A}_{2}}=1:3\] Their radii will be in the ratio \[{{R}_{0}}A_{1}^{1/3}:{{R}_{0}}R_{2}^{1/3}=1:{{3}^{1/3}}\] Density \[=\frac{A}{\frac{4}{3}\pi {{R}^{3}}}\] \[\therefore \]\[{{\rho }_{{{A}_{1}}}}:{{\rho }_{{{A}_{2}}}}=\frac{1}{\frac{4}{3}\pi R_{0}^{3}{{.1}^{3}}}=\frac{3}{\frac{4}{3}\pi R_{0}^{3}{{({{3}^{1/3}})}^{3}}}\] Their nuclear densities will be the same.
