Which of the following transformations is not an alpha emission?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Alpha emission involves the release of an alpha particle, which is equivalent to a helium nucleus (2 protons and 2 neutrons), resulting in a decrease of 2 in the atomic number and 4 in the mass number of the original nucleus. In option A, the transformation from $^{14}C$ to $^{14}N$ does not involve the emission of an alpha particle but rather a beta particle, as indicated by the change in atomic number without a change in mass number.
