beta- decay from a radioactive nuclide l...

`beta`- decay from a radioactive nuclide leads to :

A

the formation of isobar of parent element

B

the increase in atomic number by one unit

C

the decrease in number of neutrons by one unit

D

the change in atoms mass by one unit

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, B, C
`""_(0) n^(1) to ""_(+1) p^(1) + ""_(-1) beta` (beta particle ) , So .Z. decreases by 1unit and A remains same
