The nucleus and an atom can be assumed to be spherical. The radius of the nucleus of mass number $A$ is given by $R_n = 1.25 \times 10^{-13} \times A^{1/3} \, \text{cm}$. The atomic radius is $1 \, \mathring{A}$. If the mass number is $64$,the fraction of the atomic volume that is occupied by the nucleus is:

  • A
    $1.0 \times 10^{-3}$
  • B
    $5.0 \times 10^{-5}$
  • C
    $2.5 \times 10^{-2}$
  • D
    $1.25 \times 10^{-13}$
