Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 51

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

A.51
in \({ }_{92}^{235} \mathrm{U}, \mathrm{Z}=92\)
\[
\begin{aligned}
\mathrm{N} =\mathrm{A}-\mathrm{Z} \\
\mathrm{~N} =235-92 \\
\mathrm{~N} =143 \\
\therefore \mathrm{~N}-\mathrm{Z} =143-92 \\
\therefore \mathrm{~N}-\mathrm{Z} =51
\end{aligned}
\]
