Question

How does an atom with too many neutrons relative to protons undergo radioactive decay?

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is:'by emitting a beta particle'.

Explanation:

An atom with too many neutron relativity in comparison to number of proton will under radioactive decay by the means of beta-decay.

Beta-decay is a radioactive decay process in which a neutron gets converted to into proton and electron as a beta-particle with (-1)charge.

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

So , by emitting a beta-particle an atom with more number of neutrons than protons will under radioactive decay.

Answer 2

by drinking acid and drowning the negative ones and laughing while it slowly kills off half of itself. sorry I know you need this for homework or a test but reading this might make you smile.
