Mass of `""_(3)^(7) Li` is 7.016004 amu. Mass of proton is 1.007277 amu and mass of neutron is 1.008665 amu. Mass defect of lithium nucleus in amu is

A

`0.04948` amu

B

`0.04050` amu

C

`0.04052` amu

D

`0.04055` amu

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
No. of protons in `""_(3)^(7)Li = 3`
and neutrons = `7 - 3 = 4`.
Mass of 3p and 4n = `3 xx 1.007277 + 4 xx 1.008665` amu
`= 7.056491` amu
`:.` Mass defect = `7.056491 - 7.016005 = 0.040486` amu.
