The charge topology in the fragmentation of {sup 10}C nuclei in a track nuclear emulsion at an energy of 1.2 GeV per nucleon is studied. In the coherent dissociation of {sup 10}C nuclei, about 82% of events are associated with the channel {sup 10}C {yields} 2{alpha}+ 2p. The angular distributions and correlations of product fragments are presented for this channel. It is found that among {sup 10}C {yields} 2{alpha}+ 2p events, about 30% are associated with the process in which dissociation through the ground state of the unstable {sup 9}Be{sub g.s.} nucleus is followed by {sup 8}Be{sub g.s.} + p decays.
