    Which of the following is not correct?

    A)  Nuclei of atoms participate in nuclear reactions

    B)  \[_{20}C{{a}^{40}}\]and \[_{18}A{{r}^{40}}\]  are isotones

    C)  1 amu of mass defect is approximately equal to \[931.5\text{ }MeV\]

    D)  Uranium \[({{U}^{238}})\] series is known as \[(4n+2)\] series

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Isotones are the species having same number of neutrons. In \[_{20}C{{a}^{40}},\] number of neutrons is 20 and in \[_{18}A{{r}^{40}},\] number of neutrons = 22, So, \[_{20}C{{a}^{40}}\]and \[_{18}A{{r}^{40}}\] are not isotones.
