`.^22 Ne` nucleus after absorbing energy decays into two `alpha-`particles and an unknown nucleus. The unknown nucleus is.

A

Oxygen

B

Boron

C

Carbon

D

Nitrogen

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

The nuclear reaction is represented as
`""_10^22Ne to ""_2^4He + X`
`therefore` For X,Z = 10 - 2-2=6 and A=22 - 4 - 4 = 14
Thus X is given by `""_6^14X`
Thus X is carbon .
