A.beta emission
B.neutron emission
C.alpha emission
D.gamma emission
Explanation / Answer
Ans 1 : A) beta emission
The parent nuclei is Uranium and the daughter nuclei is Neptunium . Increase in the atomic number of the daughter nuclide has been observed , alongwith a release of beta particle.
So the radiation is called as beta emission.
