Sulphur `35`(34,96903 amu) emits a `beta-` particles but no `gamma`-rays. The product is c hlorine `-35` (`34,96885` amu),. The maximum energy carried by `beta-` particle is:

A

16.758 MeV

B

1.6785 MeV

C

0.16758 MeV

D

0.016758 MeV

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`16S^(35) overset(-beta)rarr_(17Cl^(35)`
Mass defect =(34.96903-34.96885)u
=0.00018xx931 u
Energy emited =0.00018`xx`931 MeV
=0.16758 MeV
