Answer:
The energy needed to split an atom into separate protons, neutrons, and electrons
Explanation:
The equation E = MC^2 is developed by Einstein’s Special Relativity Theory
where,
E = Energy
M = mass
C = speed of the light
The energy should be measured in Joules i.e J
The mass should be measured in Kilogram i.e Kg
And, the speed of the light should be measured in meters per second i.e ms-1
The C should be squared
Now the energy is required to divided into three particles i.e protons, electrons and neutrons
It also needs to allocate the nucleus into distinct protons and neutrons that we called binding energy of nuclear
And if the energy is required to take off an electron from an atom we called the energy of ionization
And if the energy is required to add an electron to an atom so we called it affinity of electron
