Question
Chapter 25, Problem 14PS
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation The other elements generated in the given reaction has to be identified.
Concept introduction:
The "Radioactive decays" are a subgroup of "nuclear reactions" that are spontaneous rather than induced.
Than the nuclear fission reactions a very heavy nucleus, after absorbing additional light particles (usually neutrons), splits into two or sometimes three pieces. This is an induced nuclear reaction.
The newly formed fission fragments have highly unstable neutron to proton ratios which makes them extremely radioactive.
