Positron emission = emission of a positron and a neutrino when a
proton is convert into a neutron. The total number of particles in the
nucleus doesn't change, -1 proton +1 neutron
It's a spontaneous reaction for some nucleus.
eg:
Positron = e+
Neutrino=ve
O-15 --> N-15 + e+ +ve
Electron
capture= A nucleus absorb an electron while a proton is convert in a
neutron and emit a neutrino. The total number of particles in the
nucleus doesn't change, -1 proton +1 neutron
eg:
Al-26 +e- --> Mg-26 + ve
Electron
capture and positron emission are two mechanisms to explain the decay
of some unstable isotopes. Electron capture is usually observed when the
energy difference between the initial and final state is low. Mainly
because of the larger amount of kinetic energy need for the expulsion
two particles with the positron emission mechanism.

Answer: You would need 1 mole of Fluorine
Explanation:The equation is already balanced so just looking at the coefficients in the equation we can see that Sodium Chloride (2NaCl) needs two moles for this equation and fluorine (F2) only needs one.
