Final answer:

The nuclide resulting from electron capture by the aluminum-28 nucleus is phosphorus-28.


Explanation:

The nuclide resulting from electron capture by the aluminum-28 nucleus is phosphorus-28. When aluminum-28 undergoes electron capture, a proton is converted into a neutron, resulting in a decrease of one in atomic number (from 13 to 12) while maintaining the same mass number (28).
