Atoms And Nuclei Question 341

Question: The mass of 7N15 is 15.00011 amu, mass of 8O16 is 15.99492 amu and mp=1.00783amu Determine binding energy of last proton of 8O16 .

Options:

A) 2.13 MeV

B) 0.13 MeV

C) 10 MeV

D) 12.13 MeV

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

  • M(8O16)=M(7N15)+1mP

binding energy of last proton =M(N15)+mPM(1O16)

=15.00011+1.0078315.99492

=0.01302amu=12.13MeV
