Nuclear Reactions & Q-value

X(n, α\alpha) 37{}_{3}^{7}Li, then X will be

Show answer and solution

Answer: (a)

  1. X(n,α)37LiX(n,\alpha){}_{3}^{7}\text{Li} means X+01n→37Li+24HeX + {}_{0}^{1}n \to {}_{3}^{7}\text{Li} + {}_{2}^{4}\text{He}.
  2. A=7+4−1=10A = 7 + 4 - 1 = 10, Z=3+2−0=5Z = 3 + 2 - 0 = 5
  3. So the answer is (a) 510B{}_{5}^{10}\text{B}.
