14c → 14n
describe the type of radioactive emission produced from the decay of carbon-14 to nitrogen-14 and predict its reaction to an electric field.
a) radioactive gamma decay is produced by the reaction. this neutral electromagnetic radiation are not attracted to the electric field.
b) beta particles are released during the radioactive decay. these negative particles are attracted to the positive plate in the electric field.
c) during the radioactive decay, alpha particles are released. these positive particles are attracted to the negative plate in the electric field.
d) both types of radioactive emissions, particles and electromagnetic radiation, are produced during this decay. none of these are attracted to the electric field.
