Three `alpha-`particle and one `beta-`particle decaying takes place in series from an isotope `._88 Ra^238`. Finally the isotope obtained will be.

A

`""_(84)X^(220)`

B

`""_(86)X^(222)`

C

`""_(83)X^(224)`

D

`""_(83)X^(215)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`""_(88)Ra^(236) overset(3 alpha)rarr ""_(82)Y^(224) overset(beta)rarr ""_(83)X^(224)`
