Determine the product of the reaction:
`._3^7Li +._2^4He rarr ? +n`
What is the Q value of the reaction?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Given: reaction Find:` Q=`?
In order to balance the reaction, the total amount of nucleons (sum of A-number) must be the same on both sides. Same for the Z-number.
Number of nucleons (A): `7+4 =X+1 rArrX =10`
Number of nucleons (Z): `3+2 =X +0 rArr Y =5`
Thus,it is B, i.e., `._3^7Li +._2^4He rarr. _5^(10)B +._0^1n` .
