Chemistry

6 0

Explanation:

Natural transmutation is the spontaneous disintegration of a heavy nuclide into lighter ones or fusion of lighter nuclides into heavier ones. These processes occurs naturally without anything inducing them. Nuclear fission of light elements in the core of stars is an example of natural transmutation.

  • Typically, all nuclei with atomic number greater than 83 are naturally radioactive.

         ²³⁸₉₂U  →  ²³⁴₉₂Th  + ⁴₂He

In artificial transmutation,  nuclear reactions are initiated through the collision of a nuclide with a high speed particle. Here, unstable nuclei are produced artificially in nuclear reactions. Such unstable nuclei also produce radiations.

          ¹₀n  + ²³₁₁Na → ²⁴₁₁Na + γ

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Please see the attached picture for the explanation.

<u>Le Châtelier's principle</u><u>:</u>

When a stress is applied to a system at equilibrium, the system will respond by shifting in the direction that opposes/ minimizes the effect of the stress.

• This stress could be the addition or removal of a product or reactant, changes in the concentration of the products or reactants, or a change in temperature.

☆ Why can heat be written on the same side of the products when the reaction is exothermic?

• Exothermic means that heat is released, thus heat can be treated as a product.

• I like to remember it as Exothermic → Exit
