Homework Statement

Complete and balance the following nuclear equations by supplying the missing particle.$$^{98}_{42}$$Mo+$$^{2}_{1}$$H$$\rightarrow$$$$^{1}_{0}$$n+?

Homework Equations

The Attempt at a Solution

I would think that the answer would just be $$^{99}_{43}$$Te. It seems correct, since everything adds up nicely, but apparently my answer is incorrect. Am I missing something?

I would think that the answer would just be ^{$$^{99}_{43}$$}Te. It seems correct, since everything adds up nicely, but apparently my answer is incorrect. Am I missing something?

It looks like your math is right, but you picked the wrong element...Te (Tellurium) has an atomic number of 52. Try ^{$$^{99}_{43}$$}Tc.

Oh my goodness, thank you! I can't believe I did that. I think I glanced at my periodic table too quickly, and read that "c" as an "e". Thank you, that was indeed the correct answer.
