Question

Problem Which of the following nuclides would you predict to be stable and which radioactive: (a) 18/10Ne; (b) 32/16S; (c) 23/690Th; (d) 123/56Ba? Explain.
Plan In order to evaluate the stability of each nuclide, we determine the N and Z values,the N/Z ratio from (A - Z )/Z, the value of Z, stable N/Z ratios (from as shown), and whether Z and N are even or odd.
