To determine the answers to the questions in Column A based on the given nuclear reaction, we need to understand the reaction and its products. Unfortunately, you have not provided the details or specific equation of the nuclear reaction. Could you please provide more information or the full equation?

To answer these questions, we need to consider the given nuclear reaction and gather information from the options provided in columns A and B.

The nuclear reaction is not explicitly mentioned, so we cannot determine the exact details of the reaction. However, we can still provide a general approach to solving the questions.

1. What is the atomic mass of the new atom?
The atomic mass of the new atom can be determined by summing the atomic masses of the particles involved in the reaction. Each particle's atomic mass can be found in column B. Identify the particles in the reaction and add their respective atomic masses to get the total atomic mass of the new atom.

2. What is the atomic number of the new atom?
The atomic number of the new atom can be determined by considering the number of protons (given by the atomic number). Since the reaction is not mentioned, we cannot directly determine the new atom's atomic number. However, we can assume that the number of protons remains constant during the reaction, which is typical for nuclear decay. If you know the atomic number of one of the particles involved in the reaction, it is likely the same as the new atom's atomic number.

3. What is the symbol of the new atom?
The symbol of an atom is usually given by the element's name or atomic symbol. Since the reaction is not provided, we cannot determine the element involved. However, if you can identify one of the particles involved in the reaction and know its atomic symbol from column B, it is likely that the new atom's symbol will be the same.

4. What type of decay is demonstrated here?
To determine the type of decay demonstrated in the reaction, we need more specific information about the reaction itself. Unfortunately, this information is not given, so we cannot determine the type of decay from the options provided in column B. However, common types of decay include alpha decay, beta decay, and gamma decay. These can be distinguished based on the emission of particles or radiation during the reaction.

Remember, without the specific details of the nuclear reaction, we cannot provide definitive answers to the questions. It is crucial to have more information about the reaction to give accurate responses.
