Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Balanced
Concept Introduction:
Nuclear reaction is the one where the nucleus of the atom is involved in the reaction. This can be represented in form of a nuclear equation. A balanced nuclear equation is the one in which the sum of subscripts on both sides are equal and sum of superscripts on both sides are equal.
(b)
Interpretation:
Balanced nuclear equation has to be written for uranium-238 reacting with carbon-12 to form four neutrons and a new element.
Concept Introduction:
Refer to part (a).
(c)
Interpretation:
Balanced nuclear equation has to be written for hydrogen-2 reacting with helium-3 to form helium-4 and another particle.
Concept Introduction:
Refer to part (a).
(d)
Interpretation:
Balanced nuclear equation has to be written for argon-38 formed by positron emission.
Concept Introduction:
Refer to part (a).
(e)
Interpretation:
Balanced nuclear equation has to be written for osmium-171 formed platinum-175 by radioactive decay.
Concept Introduction:
Refer to part (a).
