When non-metal atoms ionize they gain electrons.<span> Some examples of this are the halogen elements: F, Cl, Br and I, each, can gain one electron from the respective anions, F-, Cl-, Br-, and I-. O and S, may gain two electrons to form the anions O2- and S2-. This is due to the fact that those elements only need one (in the case of the halogens) or two (in the case of O and S) electrons to reach the most stable configuration of the closest noble gas (with the last shell of electrons full), so they are ready to gain those electrons and form the corresponding ions.</span>

He isotope 62(over28ni has the largest binding energy per nucleon of any isotope. calculate this value from the atomic mass of n
irina [24]
The atomic mass of the isotope Ni ( 62 over 28 ) = 61.928345 amu.
Mass of the electrons: 28 · 5.4584 · 10^(-4 ) amu = 0.0152838 amu ( g/mol )
Mass of the nuclei:
61.928345 amu - 0.0152838 amu = 61.913062 amu (g/mol)
The mass difference between a nucleus and its constituent nucleons is called the mass defect.
For Ni ( 62 over 28 ): Mass of the protons: 28 · 1.00728 amu = 28.20384 amu
Mass of the neutrons: 34 · 1.00866 amu = 34.299444 amu
In total : 62.49828 amu
The mass defect = 62.49828 - 61.913062 = 0.585218 amu
Nucleus binding energy:
E = Δm · c² ( the Einstein relationship )
E = 0.585218 · ( 2.9979 · 10^8 m/s )² · 1 / (6.022 · 10^23) · 1 kg / 1000 g =
= 0.585218 · 8.9874044 · 10 ^16 : (6.022 · 10^23) · 0.001 =
= ( 5.2595908 : 6.022 ) · 0.001 · 10^(-7 ) =
= 0.0008733 · 10^(-7) J = 8.733 · 10^(-11) J
The nucleus binding energy per nucleon:
8.733 · 10^(-11) J : 62 =  0.14085 · 10 ^(-11) =
= 1.4085 · 10^(-12) J per nucleon.
