Find binding energy per nucleon for heli...

Find binding energy per nucleon for helium nuclei. Given that mass of helium nucleus = 4.001509 amu, mass of proton=1.007277 amu and mass of neutron = 1.0086666 amu.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Mass of helium nucleus = `M_(N) = 4.001509` amu
In helium nucleus, there are two protons and two neutrons
`=0.0303782` amu
Binding energy =`trianglem xx93.5 MeV`
`=28.2973 MeV`
Binding energy per nucleon
`=(B.E)/("Atomic mass")`
`=28.2973/4`
=7.07 MeV/nucleon
