Q. Consider the following radioactive decay process
$_{84}^{218} A α A_{1} β^{-} A_{2} γ A_{3} α A_{4} β^{+} A_{5} γ A_{6}$
The mass number and the atomic number of $A_{6}$ are given by:

211 and 80

210 and 80

210 and 82

210 and 84

$_{84}^{218} A ⟶ α_{82}^{214} A_{1} ⟶ β^{-}_{83}^{214} A_{2} ⟶ γ_{83}^{214} A_{3}$
$_{83}^{214} A_{3} ⟶ α_{81}^{210} A_{4} ⟶ β^{+}_{80}^{210} A_{5} ⟶ γ_{80}^{210} A_{6}$
