Question 1

What is the disintegration energy (in MeV) associated with this spontaneous decay?



mNd = 143.910 083 u
mCe = 139.905 434 u
mHe = 4.002 603 u

1 u = 1.66 × 10−27 kg


◦
1.54

◦
2.37

◦
1.90

◦
4.13

◦
8.21


Question 2

What value of Z (atomic number) and A (mass number) result in the following alpha decay?



◦
Z = 92; A = 238

◦
Z = 91; A = 238

◦
Z = 90; A = 234

◦
Z = 93; A = 238

◦
Z = 88; A = 236
