Chapter 20, Problem 109RQ
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The minimum mass a parent atom must has than an atom of the daughter nuclide during the positron emission is to determined and the reason for the same is to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

Positrons are emitted by many synthetic isotopes. They are positively charges particles with the mass of an electron. It is a positive electron which is represented as  10e.

The positron emitters are characterized by their nuclei having very few stable neutrons. The positron decay would characteristically increase the neutron to proton ratio by converting a proton into a neutron.
