t the centers of some stars, fluorine-19 can undergo a fusion reaction with a proton (a hydrogen-1 nucleus) to produce two different nuclei. One of the products is an alpha particle (a helium-4 nucleus). What is the other

Respuesta :

Answer:

Explanation:

¹⁹F₉ + ¹H₁ = ⁴He₂ + ¹⁶X₈

The atomic weight of fluorine is 19 and atomic weight of hydrogen is 1 . Total becomes 20 . Helium , the product has atomic weight of 4 . Therefore atomic weight of product X must be 16 . Similarly we can calculate atomic number of product X . It is found to be 8 .

Hence atomic weight and number of product will be 16 and 8 respectively.

It is similar to oxygen atom

Hence the other product will be oxygen.
