Question
Chapter 21, Problem 21.1QE
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Natural decay process that the nuclide will undergo that has too large neutron-to-proton ratio has to be given.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
If a nuclide has a large neutron-to-proton ratio means, then the number of neutrons is high than the number of protons present in the nucleus. In order to gain stability of the nucleus, this nuclide will undergo beta decay. In this natural process, a neutron is converted into a proton along with beta particle emission. Due to this the number of protons present in the nucleus will increase and neutrons will decrease. This can be represented in form of equation as,
