A:
- Only a few configurations of nucleons are stable for a nucleus. The unstable nucleus will undergo decay to become stable. In β− decay, the parent nucleus emits an electron and an antineutrino. The daughter nucleus has one more proton and one less neutron than its parent.
- As per mass-energy equivalence mass can be converted into energy and energy into mass. The energy released in a nuclear reaction can be then written as,
Here Δm is the difference in mass or mass defect and c is the speed of light.
