The correct option is A.
To calculate the binding energy, you have to find the mass defect first.
Mass defect = [mass of proton and neutron] - Mass of the nucleus
The molar mass of thorium that we are given in the question is 234, the atomic number of thorium is 90, that means the number of neutrons in thorium is
234 - 90 = 144.
The of proton in thourium is 90, same as the atomic number.
Mass defect = {[90 * 1.00728] +[144* 1.00867]} - 234
Note that each proton has a mass of 1.00728 amu and each neutron has the mass of 1.00867 amu.
Mass defect = [90.6552 + 145.24848] - 234 = 1.90368 amu.
Note that the unit of the mass is in amu, it has to be converted to kg
To calculate the mass in kg
Mass [kg] = 1.90368 * [1kg/6.02214 * 10^-26 = 3.161135 * 10^-27
To calculate the binding energy
E = MC^2
C = Speed of light constant = 2.9979245 *10^8 m/s2
E = [3.161135 * 10^-27] * [2.9979245 *10^8]^2
E = 2.84108682069 * 10^-10.
Note that we arrive at this answer because of the number of significant figures that we used.
So, from the option given, Option A is the nearest to the calculated value and is our answer for this problem.
A homogeneous mixture is made up of multiple different substances. (You can see different parts)
Ex: Cereal in milk or ice in soda
A heterogeneous mixture is a mixture that is mixed well. ( you can’t see the different parts)
Ex: Rain or air
Answer:
B. accepted value x 0.1
Explanation:
in the equation provided
Maximum allowed value of percentage error = 10%
put this value in the equation in stead of percentage error we get,
so maximum error = .1 x accepted value
10 % percentage error means the experimental value has 10 % error compared to accepted value.so error will be 10 % of the accepted value
or .1 times of accepted value
