    answer range is 1.0 picometers to 1.1 pm, yours is very near, I'll try doing calculations again by myself, it may come exact.

    As usually the mass of neutrino is zero but if answer is one pico meter than the neutrino have some mass in this type of reaction. therefore take some mass of neutrino then calculate you will get your exact answer. I have taken mass of neutrino is zero. Thank you
