    Which one of the following is a possible nuclear reaction?                                 

    A) \[_{5}^{10}B\,\,+\,_{2}^{4}He\,\,\xrightarrow{{}}\,\,_{7}^{13}N\,\,+\,\,_{1}^{1}H\]

    B) \[_{11}^{23}Na\,\,+\,_{1}^{1}H\,\,\xrightarrow{{}}\,\,_{10}^{20}Ne\,\,+\,\,_{2}^{4}He\]

    C) \[_{93}^{239}Np\,\,\xrightarrow{{}}\,\,_{94}^{239}Pu\,\,+\,\,{{\beta }^{-}}+\overline{\nu }\]

    D) \[_{7}^{11}N\,\,+\,\,_{1}^{1}H\,\,\xrightarrow{{}}\,\,_{6}^{12}C\,\,+\,\,{{\beta }^{-}}+\nu \]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    In any nuclear reaction mass number and atomic number should remain conserved. Reaction satisfies this condition. Also for \[_{93}^{239}Np\], neutron to proton ratio is greater than 1.52 which makes it unstable.
