What is the basic nuclear process underlying `beta^(-)` decay ? Write nuclear reaction of this decay for `""_(83)^(210)Bi`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

General equation for `beta^(-)` -decay
`""_(Z)^(A)X rarr""_(2+1)^(A)Y+ -1^(""^(@)e)+bar(v)+E_(beta)`
For `""_(83)^(210)Bi`
`""_(83)^(210)Bi rarr""_(84)^(210)Po + -1^(""^(@)e)+ bar(v)+E_(beta)`
