A nucleus ᵐₙ X emits one α- particle and two β- particles. The resulting nucleus is
Options
(a) ᵐ⁻⁶ₙ₋₄ Z
(b) ᵐ⁻⁶ₙ Z
(c) ᵐ⁻⁴ₙ X
(d) ᵐ⁻⁴ₙ₋₂ Y
Correct Answer:
ᵐ⁻⁴ₙ X
Explanation:
When ᵐₙ X emits one α- particle then its atomic mass decreases by 4 units and atomic number4 by 2. Therefore, the new nucleus becomes ᵐ⁻⁴ₙ₋₂ Y. But as it emits two β⁻ particles, its atomic number incre4ases by 2. Thus the resulting nucleus is ᵐ⁻⁴ₙ X.
