<u>Answer:</u> The given decay process is beta decay.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Beta-decay is defined as the decay process in which a neutron gets converted into a proton and an electron releasing a beta-particle. The beta particle released carries a charge of -1 units and has a mass of 0 units.

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

The chemical reaction for converting carbon nucleus to nitrogen nucleus, the equation follows:

_6^{14}\textrm{C}\rightarrow _7^{14}\textrm{N}+_{-1}^0\beta

Thus, the given decay process is beta decay.

this is beta decay as the mass number stays the same but proton number changes, this is specifically beta minus as a neuron changes into a proton
