Dr. Rivera, an atomic physicist, did various experiments using a particle accelerator and various elements. He was able to identify the elements by examining their atomic numbers and masses. However, he needs to complete a report containing the classification of the element and the nuclear reaction of the synthesis. Help him by completing the table below. TRANSURANIC/ NUCLEAR SUPERHEAVY REACTION Mendelevium (75 Md) was formed by bombarding einsteinium (253ES) with an alpha particle (He). Seaborgium (5Sg) was formed by bombarding lead (20Pb) with an accelerated ion of chromium (5%Cr). Americium (Am) was formed by bombarding plutonium (2 Pu) with an accelerated ion of a neutron (n). 240
