Abstract
The results of calculations of semileptonic Bc meson exclusive decay channels using the quark potential model are presented. These results are compared with estimations made using the spectator model. The polarization of charmonia states resulting from b to c decay are also calculated, providing a more detailed experimental check of the model.
