NEET2022PhysicsNuclear PhysicsActual
In the given nuclear reaction, the element X is Na 11 22 → X + e + + v
Options
- ANe 10 23
- BNe 10 22
- CMg 12 22
- DNa 11 23
Correct answer
B. Ne 10 22
Step-by-step solution
As positron is emitting, it is positive beta decay with equation, X z A ⟶ Y z - 1 A + e + + ν Hence, ⇒ Na 11 22 ⟶ Ne 10 22 + e + + ν
