Carbon-14 is a radioactive material. It contains 6 protons and 8 neutrons. During the process of Carbon-14 decay, one of its 8 neutrons becomes a proton and an electron is formed in the process. Based on this information, select all that apply. The mass number is unchanged by the decay of Carbon-14. The mass number is changed by the decay of Carbon-14. After decay the atom is still Carbon. After decay the atom is not Carbon.
