Vedclass · Answer

(B) Atomic energy levels are typically in the range of $eV$ (electron-volts),which is $10^0 \ eV$ to $10^1 \ eV$. Nuclear energy levels are typically in the range of $MeV$ (mega electron-volts),which is $10^6 \ eV$. However,the question asks for the ratio of the orders of the spacings. Atomic energy level spacing is of the order of $1 \ eV$. Nuclear energy level spacing is of the order of $1 \ MeV = 10^6 \ eV$. Therefore,the ratio of the spacing of nuclear energy levels to atomic energy levels is $10^6 / 1 = 10^6$.

The ratio of the orders of the spacings of nuclear energy levels and atomic energy levels is
