Concept introduction:
The nuclear reactions are a type of chemical process which leads to the formation of some new nuclei with the emission of certain particles. Usually, alpha or beta particles or gamma rays are emitted as a side product with some new daughter nuclei. The nuclear reactions follow the conservation of
Answer to Problem 20.1P
Explanation of Solution
In the given nuclear reaction,
(b)
Interpretation:
The balanced nuclear reaction of the alpha emission of
Concept introduction:
The nuclear reactions are a type of chemical process which leads to the formation of some new nuclei with the emission of certain particles. Usually, alpha or beta particles or gamma rays are emitted as a side product with some new daughter nuclei. The nuclear reactions follow the conservation of atomic number and mass number of nuclei. It means the sum of the mass number on both sides should be the same and the sum of the atomic number of nuclei should be the same on both sides.
