To solve this question,
let us first calculate how much all the nucleons will weigh when they are apart,
that is:
<span>Mass of 25 protons = 25(1.0073) = 25.1825 amu </span>
Mass of neutrons = (55-25)(1.0087) = 30.261 amu
So, total mass of nucleons = 30.261+25.1825 =
55.4435 amu
<span>Now we subtract the mass of nucleons and mass of the Mn
nucleus:
55.4435 - 54.938 = 0.5055 amu
This difference in mass is what we call as the mass defect of
a nucleus. Now we calculate the binding energy using the formula:</span>
<span> E=mc^2 </span>
<span>But first convert mass defect in units of SI (kg):
Δm = 0.5055 amu = (0.5055) / (6.022x10^26)
<span>Δm = 8.3942x10^-28 kg</span>
Now applying the formula,
E=Δm c^2
E=(8.3942x10^-28)(3x10^8)^2
E=7.55x10^-11 J</span>
Convert energy from Joules
to mev then divide by total number of nucleons (55):
E = 7.55x10^-11 J *
(6.242x10^12 mev / 1 J) / 55 nucleons
<span>E = 8.57 mev / nucleon</span>

It changes the chemical composition of the magnesium into something else (whitish substance)
Answer: An atom can be considered unstable in one of two ways. If it picks up or loses an electron, it becomes electrically charged and highly reactive. Such electrically charged atoms are known as ions. Instability can also occur in the nucleus when the number of protons and neutrons is unbalanced.
Explanation:
Answer:
V = 22.42 L/mol
N₂ and H₂ Same molar Volume at STP
Explanation:
Data Given:
molar volume of N₂ at STP = 22.42 L/mol
Calculation of molar volume of N₂ at STP = ?
Comparison of molar volume of H₂ and N₂ = ?
Solution:
Molar Volume of Gas:
The volume occupied by 1 mole of any gas at standard temperature and pressure and it is always equal to 22.42 L/ mol
Molar volume can be calculated by using ideal gas formula
PV = nRT
Rearrange the equation for Volume
V = nRT / P . . . . . . . . . (1)
where
P = pressure
V = Volume
T= Temperature
n = Number of moles
R = ideal gas constant
Standard values
P = 1 atm
T = 273 K
n = 1 mole
R = 0.08206 L.atm / mol. K
Now put the value in formula (1) to calculate volume for 1 mole of N₂
V = 1 x 273 K x 0.08206 L.atm / mol. K / 1 atm
V = 22.42 L/mol
Now if we look for the above calculation it will be the same for H₂ or any gas. so if we compare the molar volume of 1 mole N₂ and H₂ it will be the same at STP.
