In M _ O is the mass of an oxygen isotope ₈ O ¹⁷ and M_p and M_N are the mass of proton and mass of neutron respectively, then the nucleus binding energy of the isotope is
Options
- AM _ o C ^2
- B( M _ O -8 M _ p ) C ^2
- C( M _ O -17 M _ N ) C ^2
- D( M _ o -8 M _ p -9 M _ N ) C ^2
Correct answer
D. ( M _ o -8 M _ p -9 M _ N ) C ^2
Step-by-step solution
Number of protons =8 Number of neutrons =17-8=9 Binding energy, aligned B E & = (M_ nucleus -M_ nucleons ) C^2 & = (M₀-8 M_p-9 M_N ) C^2 aligned
