In the transformation of `""_(92)^(238)U` to `""_(92)^(234)U`, if one emission is an `alpha`-particle, what should be the other emission ?

A

Two `beta^(-)` and one `beta^(+)`

B

One `beta^(-)` and one `gamma`

C

One `beta^(+)` and one `beta^(-)`

D

Two `beta^(-)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`""_(92)^(238)Uto""_(92)^(234)U+""_(2)^(4)He+2overset(0)-1^(e)`
i.e., `2beta^(-)`
