Answer:
Correct Answer: 292.(c)
Solution:
Formula:
- (p) In $\alpha$-decay mass number decreases by 4 and atomic number decreases by 2 .
(q) $\ln \beta^{+}$-decay mass number remains unchanged while atomic number decreases by 1 .
(r) In fission, parent nucleus breaks into all most two equal fragments.
(s) In proton emission both mass number and atomic number decreases by 1 .
