Q28 / 120 · JEE Main 2007 · Chemistry

Which of the following nuclear reactions will generate an isotope?

  • Correct answer
    A
    neutron particle emission
  • B
    positron emission
  • C
    $\alpha$-particle emission
  • D
    $\beta$-particle emission

Solution

${ }_{\mathrm{Z}}^{\mathrm{A}} \mathrm{X} \longrightarrow{ }_{\mathrm{Z}}^{\mathrm{A}-1} \mathrm{X}+{ }_0^1 \mathrm{n}$ Hence, (A) is correct.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
