The only stable isotope of sodium is `._(11)^(23)Na`. Daughter nucleus which can be formed due to radioactive decay of `._(11)Na^(22)` isA. `._(11)Na^(23)`B. `._(10)Ne^(22)`C. `._(9)F^(18)`D. `_(12)Mg^(22)`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
`[._(11)Na^(23)` stable isotope i. e. `._(11)Na ^(22) ` has n/p ratio lesser than required To increase n/p ratio
`{:(._(11)Na ^(22),rarr,._(10)Ne^(22),+,._(1)e^(0)),(,,,,("positron emission")):}`
Or
`{:(._(-1)e^(0),+,._(11)Na^(22),rarr,._(10)Ne^(22)),(("k-electron caputre"),,,,):}`
