There are two ways 174Ir can decay, alpha and positive beta, so there are two different equations.

The equation for the alpha decay of 174Ir is: 77174Ir --> 75170Re + 24He

representing the alpha particle as a helium nucleus.

The equation for the beta+ decay of 174Ir is: 77174Ir --> 76174Os + 10e + ve

wher 10e represents a positive beta particle or positron.
