The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of how \( _{7}^{13}N \) (Nitrogen-13) changes to \( _{6}^{13}C \) (Carbon-13) by the emission of a particle, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the Reactants and Products The given reaction is: \[ _{7}^{13}N \rightarrow _{6}^{13}C + ? \] Here, Nitrogen-13 is the reactant, and Carbon-13 is one of the products. We need to determine what particle is emitted during this transformation. ### Step 2: Analyze the Mass and Charge - The mass number (A) of Nitrogen-13 is 13, and its atomic number (Z) is 7. - The mass number of Carbon-13 is also 13, and its atomic number is 6. ### Step 3: Balance the Mass and Charge To balance the equation, we need to ensure that both the mass numbers and the atomic numbers are conserved. 1. **Mass Number**: - Left side: 13 (from Nitrogen) - Right side: 13 (from Carbon) + mass of emitted particle - Therefore, the mass of the emitted particle must be 0. 2. **Atomic Number**: - Left side: 7 (from Nitrogen) - Right side: 6 (from Carbon) + atomic number of emitted particle - Therefore, the atomic number of the emitted particle must be +1 (since 7 - 6 = 1). ### Step 4: Identify the Emitted Particle The particle that has a mass number of 0 and an atomic number of +1 is a positron (\( e^+ \)). This is because: - A positron is the antimatter counterpart of an electron and has a charge of +1. ### Step 5: Write the Final Balanced Equation Thus, the complete balanced equation is: \[ _{7}^{13}N \rightarrow _{6}^{13}C + e^+ \] ### Conclusion The emission that occurs is a positron emission. ### Final Answer The answer is: \( _{6}^{13}C + e^+ \) (positron emission). ---
