Question

An atom of 70kr has a mass of 69. 955264 amu. mass of1h atom = 1. 007825 amu mass of a neutron = 1. 008665 amu. calculate the binding energy in mev per atom.

Answer 1

The binding energy in MeV per atom is - 63284.56 Mev.

The amount of energy needed to detach a particle from a system of particles or to disperse every particle in the system is known as the binding energy. Subatomic particles in atomic nuclei, electrons attached to atom's nuclei, and atoms and ions bonded together in crystals are three examples of where binding energy is very relevant.

If we have a nucleus with Z protons and N neutrons and mass MA, where A = Z + N then its binding energy in MeV is given by: Eb(MeV) = (Zmp + Nmn - MA) x 931.494 MeV/u

Mass of atom = 69.955264 amu

Mass of proton = 1.007825 amu

Mass of neutron = 1.008665 amu

Binding energy, Mev = (Zmp + Nmn - M) × 931.494MeV/u

                                    = ( 1.007825 + 1.008665 -  69.955264) × 931.494

                                    = - 67.938774 × 931.494

                                    = - 63284.56 Mev

Therefore, the binding energy in MeV per atom is - 63284.56 Mev.
