- #13During a negative beta decay,
(a) an atomic electron is ejected
(b) an electron which is already present within the nucleus is ejected
(c) a neutron in the nucleus decays emitting an electron
(d) a proton in the nucleus decays emitting an electron.digAnsr: cAns : (c) a neutron in the nucleus decays emitting an electron
Negative beta decay is given as
`` n\to p+{e}^{-}+\stackrel{¯}{\nu }``
Neutron decays to produce proton, electron and anti-neutrino.
