    An element with atomic number 84 and mass number 218 loses one a-particle and two\[\beta -\] particles in three successive stages. The resulting element will have

    A)  at. no. 84 and mass no. 214

    B)  at no. 82 and mass no. 214

    C)   at. no. 84 and mass no. 218

    D)  at. no. 82 and mass no. 218

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                     Let element is 'A'. \[_{84}{{A}^{218}}{{\xrightarrow{\alpha -particle}}_{82}}{{B}^{214}}{{\xrightarrow{-\beta }}_{83}}{{C}^{214}}\]                                                 \[{{\xrightarrow{-\beta }}_{84}}{{D}^{214}}\] Hence, the resulting element  will have at. no. 84 and mass no. 214.
