When radioactive carbon (C-14) decays, it produces an isotope of nitrogen (N-14) and emits a beta particle. Which symbol seen above represents a beta particle?

Hey there!

Here is what the equation would look like:

14/6 C --> 0/-1 e + 14/7 N

The beta particle can either be shown as an electron or with the symbol shown in the image attached.

Hope this helps!! :)
