Chapter 20, Problem 20.50QP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

For given bombardment reactions the nuclear equation has to be written.

Concept introduction:

To write the nuclear equation for nuclear bombardment reaction first we understand that symbols that indicate the nuclear particles.

Thus symbols are,

$\begin{array}{l}\text{Neutron}{\text{(}}_0^1\text{N)}\text{ - n}\\ \text{Proton }{\text{(}}_{\text{1}}^1\text{H)}\text{- p}\\ {\text{Deuteron (}}_{\text{1}}^{\text{2}}\text{H) - d }\\ {\text{Alpha (}}_{\text{2}}^{\text{4}}\text{He)}\text{- α }\end{array}$
