. If mass of proton= 1.008 amu and mass of neutron= 1.009 amu, then the binding energy per nucleon for 12C6 (mass=12.0107 amu )is
A. 6.1 MeV
B. 14.3 MeV
C. 7.1 MeV
D. 10.3 Mev
Best Answer
(c)
B.E. (MeV)= mass defect *931.5 /Atomic no.
Mass defect= (1.008*6 + 1.009*6 -12.0107)= 0.0913amu
B.E.= 0.0913* 931.5 /12= 7.1 MeV
