The binding energy per nucleon for C^(12...

The binding energy per nucleon for `C^(12)` is 7.68 MeV and that for `C^(13)` is 7.5 MeV. The energy required to remove a neutron from `C^(13)` is

A

0.21 MeV

B

2.52 MeV

C

4.95 MeV

D

2.75 MeV

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Total binding energy of `C^(12)=12xx7.68=92.16 MeV`
Total binding energy of `C^(13)=13xx7.47xx97.11MeV`
`therefore" Energy required "=97.11-92.16=4.95 MeV`
