Answer:
One: <u>Selenium</u> is Paramagnetic
Explanation:
Those compounds which have unpaired electrons are attracted towards magnet. This property is called as paramagnetism. Lets see why remaining are not paramagnetic.
Electronic configuration of Scandium;
Sc = 21 = 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹
Sc³⁺ = 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶
Hence in Sc³⁺ there is no unpaired electron.
Electronic configuration of Bromine;
Br = 35 = 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4p⁵
Br⁻ = 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4p⁶
Hence in Br⁻ there is no unpaired electron.
Electronic configuration of Magnesium;
Mg = 12 = 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s²
Mg²⁺ = 1s², 2s², 2p⁶
Hence in Mg²⁺ there is no unpaired electron.
Electronic configuration of selenium;
Se = 34 = 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4p⁴
Or,
Se = 34 = 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4px², 4py¹, 4pz¹
Hence in Se there are two unpaired electrons hence it is paramagnetic in nature.

Answer:
b. Beta emission, beta emission
Explanation:
A factor to consider when deciding whether a particular nuclide will undergo this or that type of radioactive decay is to consider its neutron:proton ratio (N/P).
Now let us look at the N/P ratio of each atom;
For B-13, there are 8 neutrons and five protons N/P ratio = 8/5 = 1.6
For Au-188 there are 109 neutrons and 79 protons N/P ratio = 109/79=1.4
For B-13, the N/P ratio lies beyond the belt of stability hence it undergoes beta emission to decrease its N/P ratio.
For Au-188, its N/P ratio also lies above the belt of stability which is 1:1 hence it also undergoes beta emission in order to attain a lower N/P ratio.
