Carbon-14 decays into nitrogen-14 by emitting a – particle.Which statement explains why the – particles are emitted with a range of different kineticenergies?A The carbon-14 nuclei have slightly different masses.B The emitted – particles have a range of different masses.C The energy released in the decay process is different for each carbon-14 nucleus thatdecays.D The energy released in the decay process is shared between the nitrogen-14 nucleus, a– particle and an antineutrino.

The sodium-22 nuclide radioactively decays by positron emission. Write a balanced nuclear chemical equation that describes this process.

Explain what happens to an isotope of carbon-14 that undergoes beta-minus decay with reference to the properties of beta particles, the changes taking place during beta-minus decay and the new element formed.
