**Question 14**What does the `?` represent in the bombardment equation of nitrogen-14?\[ _{7}^{14}\text{N} + \, ? \, \rightarrow \, _{6}^{14}\text{C} + _{1}^{1}\text{H}\]- A) alpha particle- B) beta particle- C) gamma ray- D) neutronThis question is part of the study of nuclear reactions where particles bombard a target nucleus leading to transmutation into different elements or isotopes. The given equation illustrates how nitrogen-14 reacts with an unknown particle (denoted by `?`), resulting in the formation of carbon-14 and a hydrogen nucleus (proton).**Explanation of Reactions and Options:**- **Alpha Particle** involves the emission of a helium-4 nucleus. In nuclear reactions, this would imply a transfer of 2 protons and 2 neutrons.- **Beta Particle** refers to the emission of an electron or positron and involves changes in the neutron-to-proton ratio in the nucleus.- **Gamma Ray** involves the emission of high-energy photons and usually accompanies other nuclear reactions but does not affect the numbers of protons or neutrons.- **Neutron** involves the inclusion or emission of a neutron affecting the atomic mass but not the atomic number.To solve for `?`, identify which component balances the nuclear reaction equation and adheres to the conservation of both mass number and atomic number.

In this question, we will identify the particle for the given nuclear equation. You can see the…
