Concept Introduction:
The reactions involving formation of new nucleus with emission of some radiation along with it from an original nucleus are known as nuclear reactions.
To write a nuclear reaction, the chemical equation for the reaction must be balanced that is the sum of atomic number and mass number on both the side should be equal.
(c)
Interpretation:
A balanced equation for the β-emission of chromium-55 should be written.
Concept Introduction:
The reactions involving formation of new nucleus with emission of some radiation along with it from an original nucleus are known as nuclear reactions.
To write a nuclear reaction, the chemical equation for the reaction must be balanced that is the sum of atomic number and mass number on both the side should be equal.
