Question 110

Sodium-24 is a radioactive isotope used in clinical medicine to study blood circulation and detect obstructions. It undergoes beta-minus (β−\beta^-β−) decay to form a stable isotope of magnesium.

Complete the nuclear equation for this decay by writing the correct numbers in the boxes.

1124Na⟶□24Mg+□0β \text{}^{24}_{11}\text{Na} \longrightarrow \text{}^{24}_{\square}\text{Mg} + \text{}^{0}_{\square}\beta 1124​Na⟶□24​Mg+□0​β
