The extra neutron destabilizes the nucleus, but not enough to kick out the neutron. Instead, the neutron breaks down into a proton and an electron. The newly created proton stays in the nucleus (and the carbon atom becomes a nitrogen atom), but the electron, because is has such a small mass, gets jettisoned from the atom due to the energy given off from the neutron transformation. The process is known as beta decay. There's also an antineutrino that gets created...but that starts to venture more into physics and less into chemistry.
I started buying suspiciously 'cheap' coffee in supermarket after the lockdown but now I came to suspect that it may not be real bean based. It actually turned my teeth dark and dull.
Thank you!
Nothing in the cup so I don't want Joe's cup of Joe I will stick to the real thing.
thats a likable chap
Wait if it has extra neutron isn’t it the neutron that’s released?
