The nuclear equation is:
Where a beta particle is an electron.
The number of moles of K we start with is:
So we obtain the same number of moles of Ca and beta particles, which are equivalent to a mass of:
The difference, which is 0.0002 g is released as energy:

One amu - 1.6605 x 10 kg and the speed of light is 3.00 x 10 m/s. 2. Write the nuclear equation for each of the following reactions. Refer to a periodic table. a. the alpha decay...
Use the following information to answer this analytic question The sun produces energy through nuclear fusion. In one particular reaction, energy is released when a hydrogen-2 nucleus fuses with a hydrogen-3 nucleus. This produces a helium-5 nucleus that is unstable and that decays to a helium-4 nucleus and a neutron. The fusion reaction chain is H + > - He – În + He The masses of two of these particles are given in the table below. Particle Isotope Notation...
