Which of the following nuclei is unstable? a)`._(5)B^(10)` b)`._(4)Be^(10)` c)`._(7)N^(14)` d)`._(8)O^(16)`

`""_(5)B^(10)`

`""_(4)B^(10)`

`""_(7)N^(14)`

`""_(8)O^(16)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:

The stability of a nucleus depends on neutron/proton ratio. Also, nuclei with same no. of neutrons and protons are stable.
`""_(4)Be^(10)` has 4 protons and 6 neutrons.
