Answer: The correct answer is option (A).

Explanation:

General representation of an element:^{A}_ZX

A= Atomic mass of the element of X.

Z = Atomic number of the element of X

X = symbol of the element.

^{241}_{95}Am+^{4}_2He\rightarrow ^{A}_ZX+^{1}_0n

According to Law of Conservation of Mass:

241+4=A+1

A = 244

Charge is balanced on both the sides:

95+2=Z+0

Z = 97

The element with the atomic number 97 is Berkelium. Hence, the correct answer is option (A).

romanna [79]

Answer:

23892U=23490Th +42He

Explanation:

In alpha decay, the daughter nucleus is two units less than the parent in atomic number. The mass number also decreases by 4 units. The daughter is thus found two places before the parent in the periodic table.

Which best describes nuclear fission
Firlakuza [10]
<span>Nuclear fission is either a nuclear reaction or radio active decay process in which nucleus (the center) of an atom splits into smaller parts called nuclei. This is an extremely exothermic reaction (i.e a reaction which produces heat) resulting into release of massive amount of energy in the form of heat and sometimes light. The reaction produces much more energy as compared to a similar mass of a conventional fuel, such as Petrol/Kerosene/Petroleum Gas etc. This makes Nuclear fission an extremely dense and at times very destructive source of energy. Some common elements capable of Nuclear fission are Uranium, Plutonium etc. Though in modern days Nuclear Fission are finding application in being a source of energy (such as a Nuclear power plant), but they are also used in destructive format as Nuclear Bombs and it's one of the top most imminent threats to the existence of humanity in future (in the event of a Nuclear war).</span>
