Statement-1 : Phosphours-32 decays to sulphur-32 with emission of a `beta`-particle.
Because
Statement-2: The neutron to proton ratio is less than 1.0 for all light stable nuclides.

A

Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is ture, statement-2 is a correct explanation for statement -1

B

Statement-1 is true, statement-2 is true, statement-2 is not a correct explanation for statement-1

C

Statement-1 is ture, statement-2 is false

D

Statement-2 is false, statement-2 is true

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
c
`._(15)^(32)P to ._(15)^(32)S + ._(1)^(0)e`
`beta`-emission involves following nuclear process:
`._(0)^(1)n to ._(1)^(1)H + ._(-1)^(0)e`
It will not take place when (n/p) ratio is less than 1
