$A$ radioactive element ${}_{92}^{242}X$ emits two $\alpha$-particles,one electron,and two positrons. The product nucleus is represented by ${}_{P}^{234}Y$. The value of $P$ is $..................$

Beta rays emitted by a radioactive material are

For the given reaction, the particle $X$ is $_6C^{11} \to _5B^{11} + \beta^+ + X$.

The radionuclide $^{11} C$ decays according to
$_{6}^{11} C \rightarrow_{5}^{11} B + e^{+} + \nu: \quad T_{1/2} = 20.3 \; min$
The maximum energy of the emitted positron is $0.960 \; MeV$. Given the mass values:
$m(_{6}^{11} C) = 11.011434 \; u$ and $m(_{5}^{11} B) = 11.009305 \; u$
Calculate $Q$ and compare it with the maximum energy of the positron emitted.
