0 1 . 4 Internal conversion is a process in which a nucleus in an excited state can release its box
excess energy. In internal conversion all of the excess energy is transferred from the
nucleus to an orbital electron through the electromagnetic force. This orbital electron
is ejected from the atom.
The tellurium nucleus formed in question 01.3 is in an excited state and can undergo
internal conversion.
Discuss three differences between internal conversion and beta (β–) decay.
