Using the equation above for a nuclear reaction, supply the following there are 96 or 242 or 146 curium neutrons. I need help plzz

The number of neutrons for curium is 146.

We need to find neutrons for curium:

Atomic number (Z)=96

Mass number(A) =242

Number of neutrons= A-Z= 242-96=146

Hence, the number of neutrons for curium is 146.

Explanation:

Number of Cm neutrons = 242 - 96 = 146

metals are good conductor of electricity. it has free electrons on their surface. according to electron pool theory, each atom present in a metal crystal losses all of its valence electron and as a result a pool of free is form. these pool of electrons are free to move and   conduct electricity easily   while making metal as good conductor.

the correct answer is a. the ability of electrons to flow throughout the metal.
