1. <em>Nuclear equations </em>

Answer:

D. _{75}^{187}\text{Re}

Explanation:

Your unbalanced nuclear equation is

? \longrightarrow _{76}^{187}\text{Os} + _{-1}^{0}\beta }

It is convenient to replace the question mark by an atomic symbol, _{x}^{y}\text{Z}, where x = the atomic number, y = the mass number, and Z = the symbol of the element .

Then your equation becomes

_{x}^{y}\text{Z} \longrightarrow _{76}^{187}\text{Os} + _{-1}^{0}\beta

The main point to remember in balancing nuclear equations is that the sums of the superscripts and the subscripts must be the same on each side of the equation.  

Then

x = 76 - 1 = 75

y = 187 + 0 = 187

Element 75 is rhenium (Re), so the nuclear equation becomes

_{75}^{187}\text{Re} \longrightarrow _{76}^{187}\text{Os} + _{-1}^{0}\beta

===============

2. <em>Nuclear Particles </em>

Answer:

a. a beta particle and a positron

Explanation:

A beta particle is a negative electron (_{-1}^{0}\text{e}) and a positron is a positive electron (_{+1}^{0}\text{e}).

Thus, both have the same mass but opposite charge.

b. is <em>wrong</em>. A neutron and a proton have the same mass number but slightly different masses. Furthermore, a neutron has no charge, while a proton has a positive charge.

c. is <em>wrong</em>. A proton and an electron and an electron have opposite charges, but a proton has 1836 times the mass of an electron.

d. is <em>wrong</em>. An alpha particle has four times the mass and twice the charge of a proton .

Answer:

bombarding it with an energetic particle

Explanation:  nuclear reaction, a change in the identity or characteristics of an atomic nucleus, induced by bombarding it with an energetic particle. The bombarding particle may be an alpha particle, a gamma-ray photon, a neutron, a proton, or a heavy-ion.
