Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\mathrm{n} \rightarrow \mathrm{p}+\mathrm{e}^{-}+\bar{v}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

For all nuclear processes, charge must be conserved. Also, when a release of an electron ( \(e^{-}\)) is always accompanied by a release of an antineutrino ( \(\bar{v}\) )
Hence, \(n \rightarrow p+\mathrm{e}^{-}+\overline{\mathrm{v}}\) is the correct answer.
