The atomic number of a neutral atom is equal to the number of protons and the number of electrons of the atom. The atomic weight meanwhile is equal to the sum of the number of protons and number of neutrons. In this case, the no.of protons is 19 and the number of neutrons is 40-19 equal to 21.

Its 19 because h (atomic mass is4.02643(11) u) contains one proton and three neutrons in its nucleus. It is a highly unstable isotope of hydrogen. It has been synthesised in the laboratory by bombarding tritium with fast-moving deuterium nuclei.
Radioactivity or radioactive decay is the process that occurs when unstable isotopes or atoms release energy by emitting radiations such as ,gamma radiations, alpha radiations and beta radiations to attain stability. Therefore, in this case decay is likely to occur when a given atom has two many neutrons in its nucleus in order to attain stability.

Electrons are emitted from the nucleus when a neutron is converted to a proton, an electron and a neutrino. This process is popularly known as beta emission. It reduces the neutron-proton ratio of a nuclide. The neutrino is a particle of zero mass and zero charge that carries off the excess energy and balances spins.
The loss of an electron from the nucleus occurs when there are too many neutrons in the nucleus. The process of beta emission usually reduces the number of neutrons in an atom thereby decreasing the neutron-proton ratio.
