In the nuclear reaction : X (n, alpha)3 ...

In the nuclear reaction : `X (n, alpha)_3 Li^7` the term `X` will be `3`

A

`._(5)B_(10)`

B

`._(5)B^(9)`

C

`._(5)B^(11)`

D

`._(2)He^(4)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`._(Z)X^(A) +._(0)n^(1) rarr ._(2)He^(4) +._(3)Li^(7)`
`Z +0 = 2+3 rArr Z = 5`
`A+1 = 4+7 rArr A = 10`
`X` is `._(5)B^(10)`
