Answer:

Beta Negative Decay

Step-by-step explanation:

Beta decay is when a proton is lost but an electron is gained. I am not the best at explaining things so encourage you to do a search and watch some videos. There are some really great ones. Specifically, I would recommend Tyler DeWitt as he is a great teacher who explains chemistry concepts really clearly.

Don't know if that was hopeful but I hope it was.
