Confirm that charge, electron family number, and the total number of nucleons are all conserved by the rule for electron capture given in the equation YN + 1 + ve: To do this, identify the values of each before and after the capture. (Use the following as necessary: Z and A.) X + e- charge of " XN = charge of e = charge of YN + 1 = Z-1 + charge of ve = electron family number of XN = electron family number of e = A electron family number of YN + 1 = Z-1 electron family number of v. - number of nucleons of XN = number of nucleons of e number of nucleons of A Z-1 YN+1 = number of nucleons of ve =
