A radioactive nucleus emits a beta particle. Does the position of daughter nucleus change in a periodic table as compared to the parent nucleus?

Explanation

When a radioactive nucleus emits a beta particle, it transforms into a different element with the same mass number but a different atomic number. However, the position of the daughter nucleus in the periodic table does not change because the mass number remains the same.
