Question

Which represents the balanced nuclear equation for the beta plus decay of C-11?

Answer 1

Nuclear reaction: ¹¹C → ¹¹B + e⁺(positron) + ve(electron neutrino).
Beta decay is radioactive decay in which a beta ray and a neutrino are emitted from an atomic nucleus.
There are two types of beta decay: beta minus and beta plus. In beta minus decay, neutron is converted to a proton and an electron and an electron antineutrino and in beta plus decay, a proton is converted to a neutron and positron and an electron neutrino, so mass number does not change.

Answer 2

The answer is A, 11/6 C (insert arrow) 11/5 B + 0/+1 e
