If `M_(O)` is the mass of an oxygen isotope `._(8)O^(17),M_(p) and M_(n)` are the masses of a proton and a neutron, respectively, the nuclear binding energy of the isotope is

A

`(M_(O)-8M_(p))c^(2)`

B

`(M_(O)-8M_(p)-9M_(n))c^(2)`

C

`M_(O)c^(2)`

D

`(M_(O)-17M_(n))c^(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Binding energy, `BE=(M_("nucleus")-M_("nucleons"))c^(2)`
`=(M_(O)-8M_(p)-9M_(n))c^(2)`
