``_80^197Hg` decay to ``_79^197Au` through electron capture with a decay constant of 0.257 per day.(a)What other particle or particles are emitted in the decay?(b) assume that the electron is captured from the K shell. Use Moseley's law `sqrt v=a(Z-b)`with a `a=4.95xx10^7 s^(-1//2)` and b=1 to find the wavelenghth of the `K_a` x-ray emitted following the electron capature.
