Radio isotopes can be formed by bombardment with which particles:
Correct answer: A. Neutron
- A. Neutron
- B. Photons
- C. Electrons
- D. Positron
Explanation
When neutron is bombarded on any element or particle its no. of neutron increase which result in the formation of a radio isotopesWhere as when photon is bombarded only photoelectric effect can be seen i.e electron is emitted from the element or atom.

About Nuclear Physics
Atomic nuclei contain protons and neutrons, with nuclear size, mass defect and binding energy describing their stability. The work covers alpha, beta and gamma decay, decay equations, half-life and decay rate, along with radiation safety and medical applications such as imaging, radiotherapy and tracers.
