The expulsion of an electron from an atomic nucleus is called β⁻<span> decay.

</span>β decay is a type of radiation and it consists of two parts as β⁻ decay and β⁺ decay.

β⁻  decay is a conversion of neutron into a proton by emission of an electron.
when an element undergoes a β⁻  decay, the daughter nucleus will have the same number of mass but the number of protons will be increased by 1 and number of neutron will be decreased by 1.

β⁺ decay is a conversion of proton into a neutron by emitting a positron. Then daughter nucleus will have same number of mass but proton number will be decreased by 1 and neutron number will be increased by 1.

Answer:

C. Carbon dioxide

Explanation:

Carbon dioxide is one of the end-product of combustion reactions involving many fuels today.

With the rapid increase in urbanization and technological development, man demand for energy increased tremendously. The discovery of fossil fuels paved the way for the astronomical increase in the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. The burning of fossil fuels like coal and oil invovles the process where the carbon atoms present in these fuels combine with oxygen in the air to make CO2. This has resulted in an increase in the concentration of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2).

The burning fossil fuels for electricity, industry, heat, and transportation are the major sources of the emossion of carbon dioxide.

Also, the cutting down of trees for paper production, building construction and for the establishment of settlements also increase the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Trees are help remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere through the process of photosynthesis. However, when these trees are cut down, carbon dioxide accumulates in the atmosphere.

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

500N/m²

Explanation:

The Pressure can be calculated using the formula:

P = F/A

Where;

F = force (N)

A = Area (m²)

Based on the information provided in the question, F = 30N, A = 0.06m²

P = F/A

P = 30/0.06

P = 500N/m²
