okay thank you so much, am I also right is saying that (f) is not possible, as charge is conserved but baryon number is not conserved as it has baryon number 0 on the left, and 1 on the right? (the neutron has baryon number 1 and the photon has baryon number 0)?

okay so for (e) charge is conserved baryon number is conserved and lepton number is conserved?

I just joined this forum start gaining further knowledge in physics and engineering. I'm currently in high school doing the IB diploma, and trying to get through the HL physics course! I'm hoping to study mechanical and aerospace engineering next year which I'm super excited about.

Please can someone help explain these to me? I have completed a-d but I'm not how e works. I thought gamma was an exchange particle so should it then decay further?
