The radioactive isotope `CO^(60)` which is used in the treatment of cancer can be made by (n.p) reaction for this reaction the target nucleus isA. `_28Ni^(59)`B. `_27Co^(59)`C. `_28Ni^(60)`D. `_27Co^(60)`

Answer» Correct Answer - C
`_(28)Ni^(60)+_(0)n6(1)rarr_(27)Co(60)+_1H^(1)`
(n.p means that neuton attacks and proton liberated).
