The reaction is:Pu-239 + alpha = Cm-242 + n
Neutrons are the particles that initiate a nuclear chain reaction by bombarding the nucleus of an atom, causing it to split and release more neutrons that can go on to bombard other nuclei and continue the reaction.
Not by chemical means. A nuclear reaction can be induced by bombarding the nucleus with neutrons, alpha particles, beta particles, gamma rays, high velocity nuclei from a particle accelerator, or cosmic ray particles. Neutrons are most effective at causing nuclear reactions as they have no charge and are reasonably massive.
An equation that includes only the particles participating in a reaction is called a "net ionic equation." This equation focuses on the species that undergo a chemical change, omitting spectator ions that do not participate in the reaction. By highlighting only the active components, net ionic equations provide a clearer understanding of the reaction's chemistry.
condensation
A nuclear reaction in which an atom is bombarded with elementary particles or with a lighter atom.
The reaction is:Pu-239 + alpha = Cm-242 + n
no, it is not
Ernest Rutherford was the first scientist to perform an induced transmutation reaction in 1919 by bombarding nitrogen gas with alpha particles to create oxygen and hydrogen.

Yes, the coefficients in a balanced chemical equation represent the ratio of moles of reactants and products involved in the reaction. They do not directly represent the number of individual particles, but they do correspond to the number of moles of particles involved in the reaction according to the stoichiometry of the reaction.

The absence of a bombarding presence of neutrons.
what is the reaction for the equation for carbon dioxide
condensation
yes it is possible to do so........using Einstein's equation E=ΔmC2.....
