Question
A rough estimate of the radius of a nucleus is provided by the formula r 5 kA1/3, where k is approximately 1.3 × 10-13 cm and A is the mass number of the nucleus. Estimate the density of the nucleus of 127I (which has a
nuclear mass of 2.1 × 10-22 g) in grams per cubic centimeter. Compare with the density of solid iodine, 4.93 g cm-3
