← ScienceWhich consequence results when barium-141 undergoes beta-minus decay?
A)Increased overall nuclear binding energy✓
B)Neutrino emits before proton decay
C)Daughter nuclide maintains original mass
D)Parent undergoes complete isomeric transition
💡 Explanation
Beta-minus decay converts a neutron into a proton. This increases total binding energy because daughter nuclide is more stable; therefore, total binding energy occurs rather than maintain the original level or alter the nuclide's mass.
