Isotopes of platinum

Naturally occurring platinum (₇₈Pt) consists of five stable isotopes (¹⁹²Pt, ¹⁹⁴Pt, ¹⁹⁵Pt, ¹⁹⁶Pt, ¹⁹⁸Pt) and one very long-lived (half-life 4.83×10¹¹ years) radioisotope (¹⁹⁰Pt). There are also 34 known synthetic radioisotopes, the longest-lived of which is ¹⁹³Pt with a half-life of 50 years. All other isotopes have half-lives under a year, most under a day. All isotopes of platinum are either radioactive or observationally stable, meaning that they are predicted to be radioactive but no actual decay has been observed. Platinum-195 is the most abundant isotope, making platinum one of the only three elements to have its most abundant isotope with an odd neutron number (the other two being beryllium and nitrogen).
