Question on: JAMB Chemistry - 2019
The emission of two successive beta particles from the nucleus \(^{32} _{15} P\) will produce
A
\(^{30} _{14}\)Si
B
\(^{32} _{13}\)Al
C
\(^{32} _{17}\)Cl
D
\(^{32} _{16}\)S
Ask EduPadi AI for a detailed answer
Correct Option: C
\(^{32} _{15}\)P \(\to\) 2\(^{0} _{-1}\)e + \(^{a} _{b}\)X
32 = 2(0) + a
a = 32
15 = 2(-1) + b
b = 15 + 2
b = 17
\(\therefore\) \(^{a} _{b}\)X = \(^{32} _{17}\)Cl
