In the final Uranium radioactive series ...

In the final Uranium radioactive series the initial nucleus is `U_(92)^(238) ` and the final nucleus is `Pb_(82)^(206)` . When Uranium neucleus decays to lead , the number of a - particle is …….. And the number of `beta` - particles emited is ……

A

1

B

2

C

4

D

8

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

(d) `n_alpha = (A - A')/(4) = (238 - 206)/(4) = 8`.
