Assertion `(A) :` Nucleus of the atom does not contain electrons, yet it emits `beta-`particles in the form of electrons.
Reason `(R):` In the nucleus , protons and neutrons exchange mesons frequently.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`beta-` particle is emitted not due to exchange of meson between neutron and proton but due to conversion of a neutron into proton as follows `:`
`._(0)n^(1)rarr+._(+1)p^(1)+._(-1)e^(0)`
