Which missing item would complete this beta decay reaction? PLATO

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer: $_{-1}^0\beta$

Explanation:

General representation of an element is given as: $_Z^A\textrm{X}$

where,

Z represents Atomic number

A represents Mass number

X represents the symbol of an element

Beta decay : In this process, a neutron gets converted into a proton and an electron releasing a beta-particle. The beta particle released carries a charge of -1 units.

$_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z+1}^A\textrm{Y}+_{-1}^0\beta$

The given reaction would be represented as:

$_{43}^{98}\textrm{Tc}\rightarrow_{44}^{98}\textrm{Pb}+_{-1}^0\beta$
