  1. A \({ }_6^{12} C\)
  2. B \({ }_5^{10} B\)
  3. C \({ }_4^9 Be\)
  4. D \({ }_7^{14} N\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \({ }_7^{14} N\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(^{16}_{8}\text{O} + ^{2}_{1}\text{H} \rightarrow ^{4}_{2}\alpha + ^{A}_{Z}\text{X}\) \(A = 16 + 2 - 4 = 14\) \(Z = 8 + 1 - 2 = 7\) \(^{14}_{7}\text{N}\)
