If U-235 decays into Cs-135 and 4 neutrons, what other nuclide will be produced?


Fr-223


Pu-244


Ra-226


Rb-96

Respuesta :

If U-235 decays into Cs-135 and 4 neutrons, the other nuclide that will be produced is Rb-96 (option D).

What is radioactive decay?

A radioactive decay is the process by which an unstable large nuclei emit subatomic particles and disintegrate into one or more smaller nuclei.

According to this question, a radioactive material Uranium- 235 undergoes radioactive decay into Cs- 135 and 4 neutrons (1/0n).

This means that the mass of the products we have is 135 + 4 = 139.

The mass of the nuclide left must be 235 - 139 = 96, hence, the other nuclide that will be produced is Rb-96.
