The nuclear equation also shows the transmutation of a form of radon into polonium and an alpha particle. Which one of the following statements is TRUE? (1 point) Responses On the products side, the number of protons is 84 = 86 but on the reactant side, the number is only 84 with no other protons in the products, so it is NOT balanced. On the products side, the number of protons is 84 = 86 but on the reactant side, the number is only 84 with no other protons in the products, so it is NOT balanced. If the alpha particle were a beta particle instead, this equation would be balanced. If the alpha particle were a beta particle instead, this equation would be balanced. On the reactant side the total number of protons + neutrons is 219 and on the reactant side the total number of neutrons present in the products is 215 so it is NOT balanced. On the reactant side the total number of protons + neutrons is 219 and on the reactant side the total number of neutrons present in the products is 215 so it is NOT balanced. On the reactant AND the products side, the number of protons is 2 + 84 = 86. The number of protons and neutrons is 215 + 2 + 2 = 219 so the equation is balanced
On the reactant AND the products side, the number of protons is 2 + 84 = 86. The number of protons and neutrons is 215 + 2 + 2 = 219 so the equation is balanced.
