In nuclear decay process if n/p ratio increases then which decay process may have ocurred

Staements I: In alpha decay of different radioactive nuclides, the energy of alpha particles has been compared. It is found that as the energy of alpha particle increases the half-life of the decay goes on decreasing. Staements II: More is the energy in any decay process, more is the probability of decaying the nuclide which leads to faster rate of decay.
