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.

Explanation:
Answer:
Its mass is about the same as that of a proton
Explanation:
Answer:
100 ml = 0.1 L
I divided 100 by 1000 because 1000ml = 1L
Answer:
3)The reaction is not at equilibrium and willproceed to the right.
Explanation:
The reaction quotient of an equilibrium reaction measures relative amounts of the products and the reactants present during the course of the reaction at particular point in the time.
It is the ratio of the concentration of the products and the reactants each raised to their stoichiometric coefficients. The concentration of the liquid and the gaseous species does not change and thus is not written in the expression.
Q < Kc , reaction will proceed in forward direction.
Q > Kc , reaction will proceed in backward direction.
Q = Kc , reaction at equilibrium.
Given that:
Q = 
K = 
Since, Q < K , reaction is not at equilibrium and will proceed to right, in forward direction.
