a. an atom is very stable
b. an atom has many more neutrons than electrons
c. a neutron turns into a proton
d. an electron is ejected from the nucleus

C. A neutron turns into a proton

D. An electron is ejected from the nucleus

Explanation:

Beta decay is a type of the three major types of decays, others being alpha decay and gamma decay.During a beta decay the atomic number of an atom increases by one while the mass number remains the same.Beta decay may be classified as; an electron emission, positron emission and electron capture.During electron emission an energetic electron is emitted from the nucleus, together with an antineutrino and a neutron in the nucleus turns into a proton.
