Explanation of Solution

A nuclear reaction involves changes at the subatomic level such as, the changes in the number of protons, the number of neutrons, or the energy state. To balance a nuclear reaction, two conservation conditions can be used, conservation of mass number and conservation of charges (atomic number).

The given reaction is as follows.

L37i + XZA2α24

Where, A is mass number and Z is the atomic number of the unknown reactant, X .

Apply the conservation conditions for mass numbers and atomic numbers to identify the reactant, X .

Balance the mass numbers.

The sum of mass numbers of reactants is equal to the sum of mass numbers of products.

7+A=24A = 1

Similarly, balance the atomic numbers. The sum of atomic numbers of reactants is equal to the sum of atomic numbers of products.

3+Z=22Z = 1

Therefore, the reactant, X , is a proton, H11 .

Hence, the balanced reaction can be written as,

L37i + H112α24

Explanation of Solution

The given reaction is as follows.

P82214b B83214i + XZA

Where, A is mass number and Z is the atomic number of the unknown product, X .

Apply the conservation conditions for mass numbers and atomic numbers to identify the product, X .

Balance the mass numbers.

The sum of mass numbers of reactants is equal to the sum of mass numbers of the products.

214=214+AA = 0

Similarly, balance the atomic numbers.

The sum of atomic numbers of reactants is equal to the sum of atomic numbers of products.

82=83+ZZ = 1

As the charge is 1 , the product, X , is a beta particle.

Hence, the balanced reaction can be written as,

P82214bB83214i + β-10-

Explanation of Solution

The given reaction is as follows.

A1327l + n01X + N1124a

Where, A is mass number and Z is the atomic number of the unknown product, X .

Apply the conservation conditions for mass numbers and atomic numbers to identify the product, X .

Balance the mass numbers. The sum of mass numbers of reactants is equal to the sum of mass numbers of products.

27+1=A+24A = 4

Similarly, balance the atomic numbers. The sum of atomic numbers of reactants is equal to the sum of atomic numbers of products.

13+0=Z + 11Z = 2

Therefore, the product, X , is α24 . Hence, the balanced reaction can be written as,

A1327l + n01α24  + N1124a

Explanation of Solution

The given reaction is as follows.

C612 + XZA N713

Where, A is mass number and Z is the atomic number of the unknown reactant, X .

Apply the conservation conditions for mass numbers and atomic numbers to identify the product, X .

Balance the mass numbers, the sum of mass numbers of reactants is equal to the sum of mass numbers of products.

12+A = 13A = 1

Similarly, balance the atomic numbers. The sum of atomic numbers of reactants is equal to the sum of atomic numbers of products.

6 + Z = 7Z = 1

Therefore, the reactant, X is H11 . Hence, the balanced nuclear reaction can be written as,

C612 + H11 N713
