In a beta emission, the mass number of the daughter nucleus remains unchanged while the atomic number of the daughter nucleus increases by one unit. The following are isotopes produced when the following undergo beta emission;
1) potassium-42 ------> Ca - 42
2) iodine-131 ------------> Xe - 131
3) iron-52 ---------------> Co - 52
4) sodium-24 -----------> Mg -24
The daughter nucleus formed after beta emission is found one place after its parent in the periodic table.
Regarding the stability of the daughter nuclei, a nucleus is unstable if the neutron-proton ratio is less than 1 or greater than 1.5.
Hence, the following daughter nuclei are stable; Ca - 42, Xe - 131, Mg -24.

The number of protons would be equivalent to the number of electrons if the net charge on the atom is 0.
Answer:
C. fluorine (F) and chlorine (Cl)
D. arsenic (As) and antimony (Sb)
Explanation:
In the periodic table , all the elements are arranged according to the atomic number ,
and the elements are placed in groups and periods ,
The elements with similar chemical and physical properties are placed in a common group .
The elements present in the same group have the same number of valence electrons in the valence shell .
Hence , from the given options ,
fluorine (F) and chlorine (Cl) belongs to group 17 with 7 valence electrons in the outermost shell .
arsenic (As) and antimony (Sb) belong to group 15 with 3 valence electrons in the outermost shell .
