What is the complete nuclear equation for the bombardment of a 9Be atom with an alpha particle to yield 12B?
Your question translates to the following:
9Be +alpha gives 12 B +?
A valid nuclear reaction must conserve atomic number and mass number, ie, if we write atomic numbers and mass numbers of elements in the reaction, the values that atomic numbers add up to on the right hand side must be same as that which they add to on the left hand side. The same of mass numbers too.
Atomic numbers : 4 + 2 = 5 + ? So, the unknown element has an atomic number of one, that's hydrogen.
Mass numbers: 9 + 4 = 12 + ? So, the unknown element(which we identified as hydrogen) has a mass number of 1, hence the missing element is 1H (a proton).
Therefore, the complete equation would be:
9 Be + 4 He gives 12 B + 1 H.

What is the nuclear equation for the alpha decay of 242 Pu?
The nuclear equation for the alpha decay of 242Pu is: ^24294Pu -> ^23892U + ^4He2 This equation shows that the nucleus of 242Pu decays into a nucleus of 238U and an alpha particle, which is a helium-4 nucleus.
How do you write a balanced nuclear equation for the formation of polonium-206 through alpha decay?
If radon-210 undergoes alpha decay, it will produce the alpha particle (which is a helium-4 nucleus) and polonium-206. The equation looks like this: 86210Ra => 24He + 84206Po You'll note that in the balanced nuclear equation, the atomic numbers, which are the subscripts, balance on both sides of the equation (86 = 2 + 84). The atomic masses, which are the superscripts, also balance on both sides of the equation (210 = 4 + 206).

Why does the presence of gamma rays not affect how a nuclear equation of alpha is balance?
Gamma rays do not have mass or charge, so they do not contribute to the balance of a nuclear equation that involves the emission of an alpha particle. The alpha particle carries away the mass and charge necessary to balance the nuclear equation.
