The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of identifying the product nucleus when a deuteron is bombarded on an oxygen-16 nucleus resulting in the emission of an alpha particle, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Reactants and Products:** - The reactants are: - Oxygen-16 nucleus: \( _8^{16}O \) - Deuteron: \( _1^{2}H \) (which can also be written as \( D \)) - The product of the reaction includes: - An alpha particle: \( _2^{4}He \) - A product nucleus, which we will denote as \( _Z^{A}X \). 2. **Write the Nuclear Reaction:** The reaction can be written as: \[ _8^{16}O + _1^{2}H \rightarrow _2^{4}He + _Z^{A}X \] 3. **Apply Conservation of Mass Number (A):** The mass number (A) must be conserved in the reaction: \[ 16 + 2 = 4 + A \] Simplifying this gives: \[ 18 = 4 + A \implies A = 18 - 4 = 14 \] 4. **Apply Conservation of Atomic Number (Z):** The atomic number (Z) must also be conserved: \[ 8 + 1 = 2 + Z \] Simplifying this gives: \[ 9 = 2 + Z \implies Z = 9 - 2 = 7 \] 5. **Identify the Product Nucleus:** From the values obtained: - The atomic number \( Z = 7 \) - The mass number \( A = 14 \) Therefore, the product nucleus is \( _7^{14}N \) (Nitrogen-14). ### Final Answer: The product nucleus formed when a deuteron is bombarded on an oxygen-16 nucleus, emitting an alpha particle, is \( _7^{14}N \). ---
