<u>Answer:</u> The chemical equation is written below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Transmutation is defined as the process in which one chemical isotope gets converted to another chemical isotope. The number of protons or neutrons in the isotope gets changed.

The chemical equation for the reaction of curium-242 nucleus with alpha particle (helium nucleus) follows:

_{96}^{242}\textrm{Cm}+_4^2\textrm{He}\rightarrow _{98}^{245}\textrm{Cf}+_0^1\textrm{n}

The product formed in the nuclear reaction are californium-245 nucleus and a neutron particle.

How is the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave related to the energy of the wave?
Sauron [17]

The equation that relates both energy and wavelength is:

e=\frac{h*c}{lambda}

where e is the energy and lambda is the wavelength.

Therefore, as we can see from this equation, the energy of an electromagnetic wave is inversely related to the wavelength of the electromagnetic wave.
