Question

Identify the type of change occurs in the following reaction:

${}_{13}^{27}Al{+}_2^{4}He⟶{}_{15}^{30}P{+}_0^{1}n$

• A. Radioactive change
• B. Chemical change
• C. Physical change
• D. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is A Radioactive change

${}_{13}^{27}Al{+}_2^{4}He{⟶}_{15}^{30}P{+}_0^{1}n$

It is a radioactive change as alpha particles reacts with aluminium nucleus and changes into phosphorus and neutron particles are emitted.
