Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The unknown atom, X, in the given nuclear reaction is to be identified.

Concept Introduction:

In a balanced radioactive decay:

Reactant mass number = Product mass number

And

Reactant atomic number = Product atomic number

In abalanced radioactive decay, the subscript on the individual particles represents the atomic number, while the superscript represents the atomic mass.
