प्रश्न
In β-emission from a radioactive substance, an electron is ejected. This electron comes from ______.
विकल्प
the outermost orbit of an atom
the inner orbits of an atom
the surface of substance
the nucleus of an atom
उत्तर
In β-emission from a radioactive substance, an electron is ejected. This electron comes from the nucleus of an atom.
Explanation:
Radioactivity is a nuclear phenomenon. Hence, electrons come out of the nucleus. An electron is created as a result of the decay of one neutron into a proton inside the nucleus, and it is not possible for the electron to stay inside the nucleus; thus, it is spontaneously emitted.

The graph (fig A) illustrates the correlation between the number of protons (x-axis) and the number of neutrons (y-axis) for elements A, B, C, D, and E in the periodic table. These elements are denoted by the letters rather than their conventional symbols. When the element C, depicted in the graph, undergoes radioactive decay, it releases radioactive rays. When these rays are directed into the plane of the paper in the presence of a magnetic field, as indicated in the fig B, they experience deflection, causing them to move upwards. |
