HELP!!! I have like 20 of these kinds of questions on my homework and no clue how to solve them.

Electron capture transforms 40 K 19 into what nuclide?!?!


Thank you
Answered by bobpursley
look at the definitions for each type of reaction. For instance, electron capture must reduce the atomic number from +19 to 18, and not change the atomic mass number.

40 ?? 18

Go through each type of reaction with the definition of that reaction, and apply it to the atomic number and atomic mass.
