The correct Answer is:
To find the radius of the \( _{52}^{125}\text{Te} \) nucleus given the radius of the \( _{13}^{27}\text{Al} \) nucleus, we can use the formula for the radius of a nucleus: \[ R = R_0 A^{1/3} \] where \( R_0 \) is a constant (approximately \( 1.2 \) to \( 1.3 \) Fermi) and \( A \) is the mass number. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the mass numbers**: - For Aluminum (\( _{13}^{27}\text{Al} \)), the mass number \( A_1 = 27 \). - For Tellurium (\( _{52}^{125}\text{Te} \)), the mass number \( A_2 = 125 \). 2. **Write the equation for the radius of Aluminum**: \[ R_1 = R_0 A_1^{1/3} = R_0 \cdot 27^{1/3} \] Given that \( R_1 = 3.6 \) Fermi, we can express this as: \[ 3.6 = R_0 \cdot 27^{1/3} \] 3. **Write the equation for the radius of Tellurium**: \[ R_2 = R_0 A_2^{1/3} = R_0 \cdot 125^{1/3} \] 4. **Divide the equations for the two nuclei**: \[ \frac{R_1}{R_2} = \frac{R_0 \cdot 27^{1/3}}{R_0 \cdot 125^{1/3}} \] The \( R_0 \) cancels out: \[ \frac{3.6}{R_2} = \frac{27^{1/3}}{125^{1/3}} \] 5. **Simplify the right-hand side**: \[ \frac{3.6}{R_2} = \left(\frac{27}{125}\right)^{1/3} \] 6. **Calculate \( \frac{27}{125} \)**: \[ \frac{27}{125} = \frac{3^3}{5^3} = \left(\frac{3}{5}\right)^3 \] Therefore: \[ \left(\frac{27}{125}\right)^{1/3} = \frac{3}{5} \] 7. **Substitute back into the equation**: \[ \frac{3.6}{R_2} = \frac{3}{5} \] 8. **Cross-multiply to solve for \( R_2 \)**: \[ 3.6 \cdot 5 = 3 \cdot R_2 \] \[ 18 = 3 \cdot R_2 \] \[ R_2 = \frac{18}{3} = 6 \text{ Fermi} \] ### Final Answer: The radius of the \( _{52}^{125}\text{Te} \) nucleus is nearly **6 Fermi**. ---
