- when the proton number of the nucleus exceeds 60 the nucleus show the tendency to be unstable? True or falsearrow_forwardSelect the CORRECT alternative: The atomic number of an atom is the sum of its protons and neutrons. Because sodium has 11 protons and 12 neutrons, its mass number is 23. The decay of a radioisotope may be as fast as a fraction of a second or as slow as millions of years. The half-life of an isotope is the time required for half of the radioactive atoms in a sample of that isotope to decay into a more stable form. Isotopes are atoms of an element that have similar numbers of neutrons and therefore different mass numbers. Certain isotopes called radioactive isotopes (radioisotopes) are stable; their nuclei decay (spontaneously change) into a stable configuration.arrow_forwardQ/Choose between parentheses 1-To convert number of particle to weight, you do not need to know.... * (Avogadro's number/ molar mass /number of moles / Non of these / Atomic number) 2-Rutherford conclude that the deflection of small amount of alpha particles is due to .... * (All of the above /Non of the above/ / Negatively charged /particles covered a large volume of an atom / The positive charge in an atom is distributed uniformly / the major part of an atom must be empty. / positively charged particles covered a small volume of an atom )arrow_forward
