Cobalt has an atomic number (Z) of 27, which means the nuclei of all its isotopes have 27 protons. Cobalt 60 has an atomic mass of 60, so it has 60-27 = 33 neutrons.
The mass of 27 isolated protons plus the mass of 33 isolated neutrons would be:
27*(1.007825 u) + 33*(1.008665 u) = 60.497220 u
The actual mass of the nucleus of 60-Co is 59.933820 u.
Mass defect: 60.497220 u - 59.933820 u = 0.563400 u
The mass defect is equal to the binding energy of a nucleus.
using the fact that 1 u = 931.5 MeV/c^2
(0.563400 u)*(931.5 MeV/u) = 524.807 MeV
The anwser is 9
my handwriting is good but if you have any more questions plz lmk
An outlier causes the median to move slightly towards the outlier.
The answer is for question 12, x = -9.3333333
