The relative i s ......... proportion of the atoms of tritium and protium.

Options

A. `10:10^(17)`
B. `1:10^(17)`
C. `10:10^(7)`
D. `1xx10^(7)`

Answer

B

Explanation

Proportion of tritium is `10^(-15)` %
`therefore` 1 tritium atoms in (?)
and proportion is 99.985 % in hydrogen
That means 99.985 protium in 100 h atom `therefore` protium in (?) H atom
thus in 1 h atom
`therefore 10^(17)` : 1 is proportion of protium : tritium
