A hypothetical radioactive nucleus decays according to the following series

\({ }_{72} \mathrm{~A}^{1!B} \xrightarrow{\square} \mathrm{~A}_{1}^{a^{-}} \mathrm{A}_{2} \xrightarrow{\square} \mathrm{~A}_{3} \xrightarrow{\psi} \mathrm{~A}_{4}\)

If the mass number and atomic number of A are respectively 180 and 72. Then, the atomic number and mass number of A4 will respectively be:

  1. 69, 171
  2. 70, 172
  3. 68, 172
  4. 69, 172

Answer

(D) 69, 172
