1. The subscript when writing the notation is always dedicated to the atomic number of the element. Since the atomic number for Mercury, Hg, is 80, then the subscript is <em>80</em>.
2. For the second problem, you just have to balance out the subscripts and superscripts of the reactions.
Superscripts: 203 = 203 + ?; To balance, the missing number would be 0.
Subscripts: 80 = 81 + ?; To balance, the missing number would be -1.
<em>Hence the particle produced is actually an <u>electron</u>, or a <u>beta particle</u> (not an element). The <u>mass number is 0</u>, and the <u>atomic number is 0 </u>(since it does not contain any proton).</em>
