What are the missing pieces of the nuclear equation above? you will need to determine themissing parts for this transmutation. you will need to determine what numbers should besubstituted for a and z, and you will need to determine what should be substituted for x.

The missing pieces of the nuclear equation are:

Explanation:

1) Given nuclear reaction:

2) A: mass number:

Balance the mass numbers of both sides of the nuclear reaction.

The mass number is the superscript to the left of the chemical symbol:

3) Z: atomic number

Balance the atomic numbers of both sides of the nuclear reaction

The atomic number is the subscript to the left of the chemical symbol:

4) Identity of the element.

The atomic number, which is the number of protons, identifies the unknown element: X.

You can find this information in a periodic table.

The element with atomic number 3 is lithium, and its chemical symbol is Li, hence X = Li.

answer is: naturally occurring solid, inorganic compound or element is mineral.

minerals usually have crystalline form, that means than crystal constituents (atoms, molecules or ions) are arranged in a highly ordered microscopic structure, forming a crystal lattice that extends in all directions.

for example magnetite is a mineral of iron oxide (fe₂o₃).

calcite is a carbonate mineral and the most stable polymorph of calcium carbonate (caco₃).

dolomite is an   carbonate mineral composed of calcium magnesium carbonate (camg(co₃)₂).
