Question

Write balanced equations for the following reactions

Answer 1

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The shorthand nuclear reaction equations have been given; the first particle in the parentheses is a reactant particle while the second particle is a product particle. These can now be rewritten as the longhand equations as follows;

238/92U + 4/2 He -------> 241/94Pu + 1/0 n

238/92U + 4/2 He ------> 241/94Pu + 1/0 n

14/7N + 4/2 He------> 17/8O + 1/1 p

56/26Fe + 2 4/2 He----> 60/29Cu + 4/2 He
