Binding energy of "".(17)Cl^(35) and ""...

Binding energy of `""._(17)Cl^(35) and ""._(15)P^(31)` are 287.67 M and 262.498 Me V which of the two nucleri is more stable ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Binding energy per nucleon of `""_(17)Cl^(35)=("Binding energy ")/("Mass number ")`
` =(287.67)/(35)= 8.22 MeV `
Binding energy per nucleon of `""_(15)P^(31)=(262.48)/(31) = 8.47 Me V `
BE of `P^(31)` is more than BE Of `""_(17)Cl^(35)`
hence `,15P_(31)` is more stable .

Inside a nucleus, the nucleons (protonsa and neutrons)attract each other with a ''strong nuclear'' force. All neutrons exert approxiamtely the same strong nuclear force on each other. This force holds the nuclear are very close together at intranuclear distances. A proton and a neutron are both shot at 100 m s^(-1) toward a ._6^(12)C nuleus. Which partilce, if either, is more likely to be absorebed by the nucleus?
