Consider the follwing nuclear reactions: ._(92)^(238) M rarr ._(y)^(x)N + 2 ._(2)He^(4) ._(y)^(x)N rarr ._(B)^(A)L + 2beta^(+)

Unstable nuclei attain stability through disintegration. The nuclear stability is related to neutron proton ratio (n//p) . For stable nuclei n//p ratio lies close to unity for elements with low atmoic numbers (20 or less) but it is more than 1 for nuclei having higher atomic numbers. Nuclei having n//p ratio either very high or low undergo nuclear transformation. When n//p ratio is higher than required for stability, the nuclei have the tendency to emit beta -rays. while when n//p ratio is lower than required for stability, the nuclei either emits alpha -particles or a positron or capture K -electron. For reaction ._(92)M^(238) rarr ._(y)N^(x) + 2 ._(2)He^(4), ._(y)N^(x) rarr ._(B)L^(A) + 2 ._(-1)e^(0) The number of neutrons in the element L is
