The mass of proton is 1.0073 u and that of neutron is 1.0087 u ( u=atomic mass unit ). The binding energy of `._2^4He`, if mass of `._2^4He ` is `4.0015 u`, is

A

0.0305 erg

B

0.0305 J

C

28.4 MeV

D

0.061 u

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`Deltam=2m_p + 2m_n -m(._2^4He)`
=2 x 1.0073 + 2 x 1.0087 - 4.0015 =0.0305 u
Binding energy = 0.0305 x 931 MeV = 28.4 MeV
