Based on the element thorium (Th). Below, I show fictionalized version of a thorium fuel cycle. Please label each indicated transmutation (>): neutron absorption (n, 2n) processes, nuclear decay processes, and/or isotope identity using the attached graph paper using an A vs. Z plot (A = atomic/isotopic mass, Z = atomic number). N.B. 233Pa only appears twice because I needed a second line, there is not a transmutation of Pa to Pa.Based on the element thorium (Th). Below, I show fictionalized version of

232Th 233Th 233 Pa 233 +2n isotope? 235Pa 233Pa 233U 232U + a + isotope? a + isotope? 220Rn 6
