Answer 1

Sure! Let's match the types of nuclear decay to your descriptions.

**Column A: Types of Nuclear Decay**

1. **Alpha Decay (a)**: Can be stopped by paper.
2. **Beta Decay (b)**: Can be stopped by aluminum.
3. **Gamma Decay (c)**: Can be stopped by lead.

So the matches would be as follows:

1. : a (Alpha Decay)
2. : b (Beta Decay)
3. : c (Gamma Decay)
4. Can be stopped by paper: a (Alpha Decay)
5. Can be stopped by aluminum: b (Beta Decay)
6. Can be stopped by lead: c (Gamma Decay)

If you need any more help or further explanation on each type of decay, let me know!
