Question

For a light nuclei, which of the following relation between the atomic number (Z) and mass number (A) is valid (A) A = (Z/2) (B) Z = A (C) Z = A/2 (D) Z = A2

Given, Atomic number =Z Mass number =A For lighter nuclei, the relation between Z and A is Z=(A/2)

Q. For a light nuclei, which of the following relation between the atomic number $(Z)$ and mass number $(A)$ is valid

$A = \frac{Z}{2}$

$Z = A$

$Z = A /2$

$Z = A^{2}$

$A = Z^{2}$

Given,
Atomic number $= Z$
Mass number $= A$
For lighter nuclei, the relation between $Z$ and $A$ is
$Z = \frac{A}{2}$

Q. For a light nuclei, which of the following relation between the atomic number (Z) and mass number (A) is valid

A=2Z​

Z=A

Z=A/2

Z=A2

A=Z2

Given, Atomic number =Z Mass number =A For lighter nuclei, the relation between Z and A is Z=2A​
