Answer: Beta emission- reduces the n/z ratio
Neutron emission- decreases the n/z ratio
Position emission- increases the n/z ratio
K- electron capture- increases the n/z ratio
Alpha decay- increases the n/z ratio
Explanation:
The essence of radioactive decay Is to attain a favorable n/z ratio. The various forms of decay are classifed according to those that either increase or decrease the n/z ratio. Do not forget that the ultimate aim of radioactive decay is to form stable nuclides
