Question

I need help on part 3. I believe that is right but it says it is wrong. Please help.

Be sure to answer all parts. 125 124 I is produced by a two-step process in which Xe nuclei are bombarded with neutrons to produce 125 neutron 125 xe then decays by electron capture xe, a process called activation to produce 125 I, which also decays by electron capture. Write nuclear equations for the two steps that produce I from 124 xe, and identify the product of the electron capture decay of 125 12 Part 1 The balanced equation for the neutron activation of 124 is 124 125 Xe Xe 54 54

Explanation / Answer

Answer: The electron capture decay of 125I fom 125Te with lss of one atomic number. The mass number remains same.

So the part 3 also correct.

Good luck
