Identify the type of nuclear decay shown here21483Bi
A
alpha
B
beta
C
gamma
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Predicting Decay Type Isotopes with an N/Z ratio that is larger than 1, which corresponds to an excess number of neutrons, will undergo beta decay. For elements with a larger atomic number, stable nuclei occur at N/Z ratios above 1 and up to 1.5. Alpha () decay is somewhat easier to predict.

Detailed explanation-2: -Alpha, Beta, Gamma Decay and Positron Emission.

Detailed explanation-3: -There are three main types of radioactive decay. These are called alpha decay, beta decay, and gamma decay respectively.

Detailed explanation-4: -Beta-negative decay occurs with the transformation of Th-234 to Ra-210? 4.
