A radioactive nucleusAZXundergoes spontaneous decay in the sequenceAZX→Z-1B→Z-3C→Z-2D, whereZis the atomic number of elementX. The possible decay particles in the sequence are:NEET 2021

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

As we know due to α-decay atomic number decreases by 2 and mass no. decreases by 4 . And due to β-decay mass no. remain unchanged and atomic no. increases by 1 And due to β+decay mass no. remain unchanged but atomic no. decreases by 1.

So, option (3) is correct option.
