What is the daughter nucleus produced when Au195 undergoes electron capture?

Sagot :

Pt195 having 78 atomic number is the daughter nucleus produced when Au195 undergoes electron capture.

An unstable isotopes can undergoes radioactive decay to form a more stable isotopes . Initial isotopes is called parent nuclide and the resultant isotopes from radioactive decay is called the daughter nuclide There are several radioactive decay like alpha decay , beta decay  , gamma decay , electron capture etc .

In electron capture , the atom have only one less which is daughter isotopes than electron than atomic number of parent isotopes.
