Question
Chapter 22.4, Problem 22.6P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The given nuclear reaction of Argon-40 has to be balanced.
Concept Introduction:
Balancing nuclear reaction equation: The balanced nuclear reaction should conserve both mass number and atomic number.
- The sum of the mass numbers of the reactants should be equal to the sum of mass numbers of the products in the reaction.
- The sum of
atomic numbers (or the atomic charge) of the reactants should be equal to the sum of atomic numbers (or the atomic charge) of the products in the reaction.
