- A. electron
- B. positron
- C. Neutron
- D. None of above has such capability
Explanation
Positrons are the antiparticles of electrons, and when they come into contact with protons, they can annihilate each other. The process can release energy and, in some cases, result in the expulsion of protons from the paraffin material

About Atomic Structure
Atomic structure covers the discovery of the proton, Planck's quantum theory, hydrogen emission spectra and the evidence for quantized energy levels. You will use quantum numbers to describe orbitals, distinguish s, p, d and f orbital shapes, and write electronic configurations, including the correct order of electron filling.
