The radio active nucleus A 90232 decays into a stable nucleus B 82208.Then number of α and β particles emitted are respectively.

a
α=3,β=3
b
α=6,β=4
c
α=6,β=0
d
α=4,β=6

detailed solution

Correct option is B

Suppose number of emitted α and βparticles are x and y respectively.∴232-4yx=208       ⇒x =6. Also, 90-2x+y=82  ⇒90-2×6+y=82 ⇒y=4.
