The partlcles emitted 1n the decay of `""_(92)^(238)U` to `""_(92)^(234)U`

A

`1alpha` and `2beta`

B

`1alpha` only

C

`1alpha` and `1beta`

D

`2alpha` and `2beta`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`""_(92)^(238)U overset(alpha)rarr ""_(90)^(234)U overset(beta^(-1))rarr ""_(91)^(234)U overset(beta^(-1))rarr ""_(92)^(234)U`
Number of `alpha` - particle = 1
Number of `beta` - particle = 2
