Question
Chapter 20, Problem 8QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The belt of stability is to be explained.
Concept introduction:
Radioactive nuclei are the species thathave an unstable nucleus and release energy by emission of radiations such as alpha particles.
Belt of stability takes place in the graph between the number of protons and neutrons of different isotopes.
The area where stable nuclei are marked represents the belt of stability.
Mostly radioactive nuclei are not located in this region as they are less stable, they are marked outside this belt.
