ANSWER:Step 1 of 4
We are given part of a nuclear reaction and are asked to balance the equation by determining the missing constituent, and to calculate the amount of energy released in the reaction.
We will start with completing the chemical reaction. We shall first calculate the atomic and mass number of missing components by satisfying the equity of the mass and atomic number on the left and on the right side in chemical reaction.
Let's find the mass number
And now, the atomic number
