The correct order of ionizing capacity of

\alpha ,\beta

and

\gamma -

rays is

View answer and explanation

Correct option: B

\alpha > \beta > \gamma

Option B (

\alpha > \beta > \gamma

) is correct because alpha particles have the highest ionizing capacity due to their large charge and mass, followed by beta particles, and then gamma rays.
