Bombarding a lithium-6 atom with a neutron produces helium-4 and another particle.what is that particle?

if you bombard a lithium 6 atom with a neutron, then it will form a helium 4 or alpha decay particle and a hydrogen 3 atom, but i dont see that happening, i would think you would need a bigger atom for it to go through radioactive decay, but im just giving my opinion, it could happen just as surely as i think it doesnt. but if alpha decay was to happen to a lithium 6 atom from neutron bombardment, you would get a helium 4 atom and a hydrogen 3 atom.

What did Thomson prove with this experiment?
all atoms contain the same particle that produces the ray.
What element is formed when 60CO emits a beta particle?
When 60Co decays by beta- decay it produces 60Ni.
What are microwaves created by?
a microwave is actually a particle of light below the visible spectrum that we can see. a magnetron is the device in a microwave oven that produces the microwaves by using an electromagnet that charged produces a light wave at the proper frequency to make it a microwave.
How does the Earth's magnetic field deflect charged particles?
A charged particle naturally changes direction in a magnetic field. This is because any charged particle produces a magnetic field when it is moving. And if the charged particle is moving through a magnetic field, the two fields (in this case the Earth's and the one created by the moving particle) interact to deflect the particle. The particle will be deflected "to the side" or laterally, and positively charged particles will be deflected in the opposite direction of negatively charged one.
A charged particle moving with a constant velocity enters a magnetic field?
when a charged particle is moving with some velocity it produces some magnetic field. If we place that charged particle in presence of external magnetic field it gets affected by that external field.
Why aluminium does not give proton when bombarding with alpha paticle?
aluminum produces neutrons, beryllium is better, but either work.
What type nuclear decay produces particles that are identical to the helium nucleus?
an alpha particle
What did Thomson prove with this experiment?
all atoms contain the same particle that produces the ray.
What small particle of RNA and protein and produces protein follows instructions from the nucleus?
Ribosome
What charged particle produces the flow of electricity?
Anything that carries and/or can transport charge.
When an unstable nucleus produces an beta particle by how many units does the atomic number of the nucleus change?
The atomic number decreases by one for each beta particle
What causes th light of a star?
Cause by the friction between particle and the air, which produces heat.
What kind of particle that produces electricity?
Electrons produce electricity. Flow of electrons comprises of current.
What type of nuclear decay produces energy instead of a particle?
gamma decay
Every charged particle produces a?
It produced a magnetic field. If it's charged, it can be negative OR positive. It's magnetic because if they're both alike signs (both positive or both negative) they repel like magnets. If one particle is positive and one is negative, they attract like magnets.
What element is formed when 60CO emits a beta particle?
When 60Co decays by beta- decay it produces 60Ni.
When an unstable isotope produces a particle and energy it can change the number of protons in the nucleus. This creates?
An atom of a different element.
