Question
Assertion :In alpha decay of differen radioactive nuclides, the energy of alpha particles has been compared. It is found that as the energy of alpha particle increases the half-life of the decay goes on decreasing Reason: More is the energy in any decay process, more is the probability of decaying the nuclide which leads to faster rate of decay

Solution
The correct option is A Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
Statement II is correctly explaining statement I
More probability of decay means faster decay process and hence shorter half-life.
