MCQ
Which decay increases the atomic number?
- A$\beta^-$decay
- B$\beta^+$ decay
- CElectron capture
- DGamma decay
✓
Answer
- $\beta^-$decay
Explanation:
$\beta^-$ decay: $_\text{Z}^\text{A}\text{X}→_{\text{Z}+1}^{\text{A}}\text{Y} + _{−1}^0\text{e}$
Thus, the atomic number is increased in $\beta^-$ decay.
