Explanation Given: ? + A 18 40 r → K 19 43 + H 1 1 n 0 1 + U 92 238 → ? n 0 1 + ? → C 6 14 + H 1 1 ? + N 28 64 i → R 111 272 g + n 0 1 A process in which interaction of two nuclear particles results in formation of one or more nuclear particles which are different from the parent nuclear particle is called nuclear reaction. Those reactions in which a nucleus is bombarded by another nuclear particle or nucleus are called nuclear bombardment reactions. In this process, fusion or fission occurs. Formula used: A x m + B y n → C r p + D s q where A , B is reactant and C , D is product. m , n , p , q and x , y , r , s is the mass number and atomic number respectively. According to the basic principle of nuclear or bombardment reaction: m + n = p + q and x + y = r + s . Calculation: The incomplete nuclear reaction is ? + A 18 40 r → K 19 43 + H 1 1 As per the formula mass number of the new nucleus: ? + 40 = 43 + 1 44 – 40 = ? 44 − 40 = 4 As per the formula atomic number of the nucleus: ? + 18 = 19 + 1 20 – 18 = ? 20 – 18 = 2 Thus, as per the periodic table the atom having atomic number 2 is Helium ( H e ). So, the complete nuclear reaction is H 2 4 e + A 18 40 r → K 19 43 + H 1 1 The incomplete nuclear reaction is n 0 1 + U 92 238 → ? As per the formula mass number of the new nucleus: 238 + 1 = ? 238 + 1 = 239 As per the formula atomic number of the nucleus: 0 + 92 = ? 0 + 92 = 92 Thus, as per the periodic table the atom having atomic number 92 is Uranium ( U )
