Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The particle should be identified which is emitted when cobalt-60 decays to nickel-60 along with the balanced nuclear reaction.
Concept Introduction:
A reaction in which a nucleus of an atom or two nuclei and a subatomic particle collide to form one or more nuclide which is different from the starting nuclide is known as nuclear reaction. Nuclear reactions can be classified as nuclear fission and nuclear fusion.
(b)
Interpretation:
The particle should be identified which is emitted when cobalt-55 decays to iron-55 along with the balanced nuclear reaction.
Concept Introduction:
A reaction in which a nucleus of an atom or two nuclei and a subatomic particle collide to form one or more nuclide which is different from the starting nuclide is known as nuclear reaction. Nuclear reactions can be classified as nuclear fission and nuclear fusion.
(c)
Interpretation:
The particle should be identified which is emitted when radon-220 decays to polonium-216 along with the balanced nuclear reaction.
