Carbon-14 (\(^{14}_6\text{C}\)) undergoes beta-minus (\(\beta^-\)) decay. Which equation correctly describes this nuclear reaction?

\(^{14}_6\text{C} \rightarrow ^{14}_7\text{N} + ^0_{-1}\text{e} + \bar{\nu}_e\) \(^{14}_6\text{C} \rightarrow ^{14}_5\text{B} + ^0_{+1}\text{e} + \nu_e\) \(^{14}_6\text{C} \rightarrow ^{10}_4\text{Be} + ^4_2\text{He}\) \(^{14}_6\text{C} \rightarrow ^{13}_6\text{C} + ^1_0\text{n}\)

Correct Answer:

\(^{14}_6\text{C} \rightarrow ^{14}_7\text{N} + ^0_{-1}\text{e} + \bar{\nu}_e\)
