In a radioactive decay process, the negatively charged emitted β-particles are
-
- the electrons produced as a result of the decay of neutrons inside the nucleus
- the electrons produced as a result of collisions between atoms
- the electrons orbiting around the nucleus
- the electrons present inside the nucleus
Correct Option: A
In beta minus decay (β–), a neutron is transformed into a proton, and an electron is emitted from the nucleus along with antineutrino.
n = p + e- + V
