MCQ
In gamma ray emission from a nucleus
- ✓there is no change in the proton number and the neutron number
- Bonly the neutron number changes
- Conly the proton number changes
- Dboth the neutron number and the proton number change
✓
Answer
Correct option: A.
there is no change in the proton number and the neutron number
a
There is no change in the proton number and the neutron number as the $\gamma$ -emission takes place as a result of excitation or de-excitation of nuclei. $\gamma$ -rays have no charge or mass.
