Ernest Rutherford carried out the first artificial transmutation in 1919 when he bombarded 14 N with alpha particles. The result was an oxygen nucleus: N 7 14 + H 2 4 e → F 9 18 * → O 8 17 + p 1 1 Radiochemists use a shorthand notation to represent transmutations. Omitting the intermediate F 9 18 * nucleus, the reaction above can be represented as 14 N ( α,p ) 17 O . Write balanced equations for each of the indicated nuclear bombardments. (a) 27 Al ( p,γ ) 28 Si (b) 40 Ar ( n,β − ) 41 K
