1 $\alpha, \beta, \gamma$
2 $\beta, \alpha, \gamma$
3 $\alpha, \gamma, \beta$
4 $\beta, \gamma, \alpha$
Explanation:
A In first step, ${ }_{\mathrm{Z}} \mathrm{X}^{\mathrm{A}} \rightarrow{ }_{\mathrm{Z}-2} \mathrm{Y}^{\mathrm{A}-4}$ The first atomic number $Z$ decreases by 2 and mass number A decreases by 4 . So, $\alpha$-particle is emitted. In second steps - \(\mathrm{Z}-2_{-2} \mathrm{Y}^{\mathrm{A}-4} \rightarrow \mathrm{Z}-1_{1} \mathrm{~K}^{\mathrm{A}-4}\) The atomic number $(Z-2)$ increases by 1 and mass number $(\mathrm{A}-4)$ remain same. Hence, $\beta$-particle emitted In third steps - $\mathrm{Z}-1 \mathrm{~K}^{\mathrm{A}-4} \rightarrow \mathrm{Z}-1_{1} \mathrm{~K}^{\mathrm{A}-4}$ The atomic number $(Z-1)$ and mass number $(A-4)$ remain same. So, $\gamma$-particle emitted. Hence, radioactive radiation are emitted in sequence of $\alpha, \beta, \gamma$.

4 15
Explanation:
C Given that, half life $\left(t_{1 / 2}\right)=10$ minute Nuclei disintegrate $=450$ Nuclei left $=600-450=150$ As we know that, $\mathrm{t}_{1 / 2}=\frac{\ln 2}{\lambda}$ $\lambda=\frac{\ln 2}{10}$ According to radioactive decay law, $\mathrm{N}=\mathrm{N}_{0} \mathrm{e}^{-\lambda \mathrm{t}}$ $150=600 \mathrm{e}^{-(\ln 2 / 10) \mathrm{t}}$ $\frac{1}{4}=\mathrm{e}^{-(\ln 2 / 10) \mathrm{t}}$ $\mathrm{t}=20 \text { minutes }$
