Chapter 22, Problem 22.68QP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The explanation for the fact that ${}^{192}\text{Ir}$ decays by $\text{β}$-decay, electron capture, and positron emission is to be stated.

Concept introduction: The surgical implication of ${}^{192}\text{Ir}$ isotope involves first $\text{β}$-decay then it eliminates from body through electron capture or positron emission.

To determine: The explanation for the fact that ${}^{192}\text{Ir}$ decays by $\text{β}$-decay, electron capture, and positron emission.
