If a nitrogen-14 nuclide captures an alpha particle, a proton is produced along with:

a. neutrons.
b. boron-10.
c. oxygen-17.
d. fluorine-18.
e. carbon-17.

c. oxygen-17

Explanation:

The isotopic representation of an atom is:

where,

Z = Atomic number of the atom

A = Mass number of the atom

X = Symbol of the atom

In a nuclear reaction, the total mass and total atomic number remains the same.

For the given nuclear reaction:

To calculate A:

Total mass on reactant side = total mass on product side

14 + 4= A + 1

A = 17

To calculate Z:

Total atomic number on reactant side = total atomic number on product side

7+ 2 = Z + 1

Z = 8

The isotopic symbol of element is

Thus a proton is produced along with oxygen-17.

for step 7 table c on the lab "newtons law of action"   the average time it took the car to travel .25 meters   was 1.92 seconds.

the average time it took the car to travel 0.50 meters was 2.61 seconds

hope this : )
