Which of the following is NOT the unit of energy

• MeV

• J

• eV

• V

Choose the FALSE statement

• Atomic number is the number of protons in a nucleus

• Mass number is the number of nucleons in a nucleus

• Neutron number the number of neutrons in a nucleus

• Electron number is the number of electrons in a nucleus

Choose the CORRECT statement. The binding energy per nucleon

• is a measure of the nucleus stability

• of heavy nuclei is the largest

• of heavy nuclei is the smallest

• depends on atomic mass of a nuclei

The nucleus of an atom is made up of

• protons and neutrons

• protons and electrons

• protons, electrons dan neutrons

• electrons dan neutrons

Radioactive decay is spontaneous disintegration accompanied by these EXCEPT

• beta particles

• alpha particles

• gamma radiation

• neutrino

Choose the FALSE statement. Gamma ray is

• uncharged (neutral) ray and zero mass

• a positive charge

• high energy electromagnetic radiation

• does not change the parent nucleus into a different nuclide

In the standard model, the particle considered to be an elementary particle is a(n)

• proton
• neutron
• electron
• alpha particle
