The correct Answer is:
To solve the equation \( _{92}^{235}\text{U} + _{0}^{1}\text{n} \rightarrow _{56}^{144}\text{Ba} + _{36}^{89}\text{Kr} + X \), we need to find the particle \( X \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify Mass Numbers and Atomic Numbers**: - On the left-hand side (LHS): - Uranium (U) has a mass number \( A = 235 \) and atomic number \( Z = 92 \). - Neutron (n) has a mass number \( A = 1 \) and atomic number \( Z = 0 \). - Therefore, the total mass number on LHS is: \[ A_{LHS} = 235 + 1 = 236 \] - The total atomic number on LHS is: \[ Z_{LHS} = 92 + 0 = 92 \] 2. **Calculate Mass Numbers and Atomic Numbers on the Right-Hand Side (RHS)**: - On the right-hand side (RHS): - Barium (Ba) has a mass number \( A = 144 \) and atomic number \( Z = 56 \). - Krypton (Kr) has a mass number \( A = 89 \) and atomic number \( Z = 36 \). - Therefore, the total mass number on RHS (excluding \( X \)) is: \[ A_{RHS} = 144 + 89 + A_X = 233 + A_X \] - The total atomic number on RHS (excluding \( X \)) is: \[ Z_{RHS} = 56 + 36 + Z_X = 92 + Z_X \] 3. **Set Up Equations**: - From the conservation of mass numbers: \[ A_{LHS} = A_{RHS} \implies 236 = 233 + A_X \implies A_X = 236 - 233 = 3 \] - From the conservation of atomic numbers: \[ Z_{LHS} = Z_{RHS} \implies 92 = 92 + Z_X \implies Z_X = 92 - 92 = 0 \] 4. **Determine the Particle \( X \)**: - Since \( A_X = 3 \) and \( Z_X = 0 \), the particle \( X \) must be a particle with a mass number of 3 and an atomic number of 0. - This corresponds to 3 neutrons, as neutrons have a mass number of 1 and an atomic number of 0. ### Conclusion: Thus, the particle \( X \) is \( 3 \) neutrons.
