A proton collides with a nucleus of nitrogen-14 (atomic number 7). This collision produces a nucleus of carbon-11 (atomic number 6) and what else?
My attempt:
14/7N + proton -----> 11/6C + alpha particle?
I know it cannot be gamma decay, but I'm not sure if it's alpha or beta decay and what particle is produced (alpha particle, proton, beta particle, or neutron). Thanks for any help.
