← ScienceWhich consequence results when electron capture reduces gallium-67’s inner orbitals?
A)Increased X-ray emission intensity✓
B)Decreased atomic mass dominates
C)Enhanced nuclear repulsion occurs
D)Reduced chemical reactivity is probable
💡 Explanation
Increased X-ray emission occurs, because electron capture fills inner shell vacancies: this process increases inner orbital electron transitions leading to photon emission rather than electron shell expansion; therefore X-ray emission increases, and other options would occur under different nuclear processes.
