Chapter 21, Problem 21.25QP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: A balanced nuclear equation that describes the decay of ${}^{26}\text{Al}$ to ${}^{26}\text{Mg}$ is to be stated.

Concept introduction: Radioactive reactions are distinct from normal reactions because in these reactions different type of radiations are produced and unstable nuclei is converted into stable nuclei.

To determine: A balanced nuclear equation that describes the decay of ${}^{26}\text{Al}$ to ${}^{26}\text{Mg}$.
