The electron emitted in beta radiation originates from:
  • A
    Inner orbits of atoms
  • B
    Free electrons existing in nuclei
  • Decay of a neutron in a nucleus

    Photon escaping from the nucleus

Answer

Correct option: C.
Decay of a neutron in a nucleus

The electron emitted in beta radiation may originates from neutron and it increases the atomic number $1.$
