Answer: 2 (2 neutrons are produced).
Explanation:
1) In the left side of the transmutation equationa appears:
²³⁵U + ¹n →
I am omitting the atomic number (subscript to the leff) because the question does not show them as it is focused on number of neutrons.
2) The right side of the transmutation equation has:
→ ¹⁴⁴Ce + ⁹⁰Sr + ?
3) The total mass number of the left side is 235 + 1 = 236
4) The total mass number of Ce and Sr on the right side is 144 + 90 = 234
5) Then, you are lacking 236 - 234 = 2 unit masses on the right side which are the 2 neutrons that are produced along with the Ce and Sr.
The complete final equation is:
²³⁵U + ¹n → ¹⁴⁴Ce + ⁹⁰Sr + 2 ¹n
Where you have the two neutrons produced.
Answer
is: mass number stays 184, but atomic number changes.<span>
Beta decay is radioactive decay in
which a beta ray and a neutrino are emitted from an atomic
nucleus.
There are two types of beta
decay: beta minus and beta
plus. In beta minus decay (</span>atomic number Z is increased by one, new element is wolfram W) neutron is converted to a
proton and an electron and
an electron antineutrino.
In beta
plus decay (atomic number Z is decreased by one, new element is hafnium Hf), a proton is converted to a neutron and positron and an electron neutrino, so mass number does not change.
Newton's first law of motion is the law of inertia. There are basically "two parts" to the law of inertia. The first part says that an object at rest tends to remain at rest unless it is acted on by an outside force. Think of gravity.
