Consider the following nuclear reaction, `X^200rarrA^110+B^90+En ergy`
If the binding energy per nucleon for X, A and B are 7.4 MeV, 8.2 MeV and 8.2 MeV respectively, the energy released will be

A

900 MeV

B

110 MeV

C

200 MeV

D

160 MeV

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Energy released = Final binding energy - initial binding energy
`=110xx8.2+90xx8.2-200xx7.4`
`=160 MeV`
