In 1994 it was proposed (and eventually accepted) that element 106 be named seaborgium (Sg) in honor of Glenn T. Seaborg, discoverer of the transuranium elements. ²⁶³Sg was produced by the bombardment of ²⁴⁹Cf with a beam of ¹⁸O nuclei. Complete and balance a nuclear equation for this reaction. A) ²⁴⁹Cf + ¹⁸O → ²⁶³Sg + ⁴₂He B) ²⁴⁹Cf + ¹⁸O → ²⁶³Sg + 4¹₁H C) ²⁴⁹Cf + ¹⁸O → ²⁶³Sg + 4¹₀n D) ²⁴⁹Cf + ¹⁸O + 4⁰₋₁e → ²⁶³Sg E) ²⁴⁹Cf + ¹⁸O → ²⁶³Sg + 4⁰₁e
