The new nuclide produced when a B 10 nucleus absorbs a proton, and if the new nuclide is a stable or radioactive nuclide. Solution: The nuclide formed is B e 4 7 . It is radioactive because it has one less neutron than the number of protons. Explanation: For this decay process of B 10 , first, the proton will react with B 10 and produce C 6 11 . After this decay process, it produces an alpha particle. B 5 10 is given. We have to first add one proton, H 1 1 and then write the reaction for ∝ decay. B 5 10 + H 1 1 → C 6 11 Then C 6 11 radionuclide undergoes ∝ decay C 6 11 → B e + H e 2 4 4 7 B e 4 7 is radioactive because it contains less number of neutrons than protons which causes instability in the nuclei. Conclusion: The nuclide formed in the decay process is B e 4 7 . It will be radioactive because of one less neutron.
