The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze the nuclear reaction provided and determine the position of element X in the periodic table. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Reaction**: The reaction given is: \[ X \rightarrow _{82}^{206}Pb + _{2}^{4}He \] This indicates that element X decays into lead (Pb) and helium (He). 2. **Determine Atomic Numbers**: - The atomic number of lead (Pb) is 82. - The atomic number of helium (He) is 2. 3. **Calculate the Total Atomic Number**: To find the atomic number of element X, we add the atomic numbers of the products: \[ \text{Atomic Number of X} = 82 + 2 = 84 \] 4. **Determine Mass Numbers**: - The mass number of lead (Pb) is 206. - The mass number of helium (He) is 4. 5. **Calculate the Total Mass Number**: To find the mass number of element X, we add the mass numbers of the products: \[ \text{Mass Number of X} = 206 + 4 = 210 \] 6. **Identify Element X**: The element with atomic number 84 is Polonium (Po). Therefore, X is polonium with: - Atomic Number: 84 - Mass Number: 210 7. **Determine the Group of Polonium**: Polonium is located in Group 16 of the periodic table, which is also referred to as Group 6A. 8. **Conclusion**: Based on the analysis, the position of group of X (Polonium) is: \[ \text{Group 6A (or Group 16)} \] ### Final Answer: The correct option for the given question is **6A**. ---
