A uranium-238 nucleus, $^{238}_{92}\text{U}$, passes through a sequence of nuclear decays to produce uranium-234, $^{234}_{92}\text{U}$. Which decay sequence could lead to this outcome?
- Aemission of four $\beta^-$ particles
- Bemission of four $\gamma$-rays
- Cemission of one $\alpha$-particle and two $\beta^-$ particles
- Demission of two $\alpha$-particles and eight $\beta^-$ particles
