The correct answer is:
<span>37/20Ca --> 37/19K + 0/+1e
Explanation:
</span>Transmutation, conversion of 1 element<span> into another. A transmutation entails an </span>amendment within the<span> structure of atomic nuclei and </span>thus is also <span>induced </span><span>by an </span>action<span> (q.v.), </span>like nucleon<span> capture, or occur </span>ad libitum<span> by </span>decay<span>, </span>like disintegration<span> and </span>disintegration<span>(qq.v.)</span>
In alpha and beta decay the parent element and the daughter element will be different isotope and not the same.
This is because as alpha particles comes out; the new element will have two less in atomic number; that is the atomic number will reduce by two and the mass number will reduce by four. While in a beta particle decay, the new element will have one higher in atomic number; that is the atomic number will increase by one.
