To find the energy released in the nuclear reaction \( A + B \rightarrow C + D \) with given binding energies \( B_1, B_2, B_3, \) and \( B_4 \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand Binding Energy The binding energy of a nucleus is the energy required to separate it into its constituent nucleons. The greater the binding energy, the more stable the nucleus. ### Step 2: Write the Expression for Energy Released The energy released in a nuclear reaction can be calculated using the difference in binding energies of the reactants and products. The formula for the energy released \( Q \) is given by: ...
