Vedclass · Answer

(D) In $\alpha$-decay,the atomic number decreases by $2$ and the mass number decreases by $4$. In option $A$,$B$,and $C$,the atomic number decreases by $2$ and mass number by $4$,which represents $\alpha$-decay. In option $D$,$_{83}Bi^{213} \rightarrow _{84}Po^{213} + _{-1}e^{0}$,the atomic number increases by $1$ and the mass number remains constant. This is a characteristic of $\beta$-decay. Therefore,the correct option is $D$.
