Question:

A nucleus \(_Z^AX\) has mass represented by \(m(A, Z)\). If \(m_p\) and \(m_n\) denote the mass of proton and neutron respectively and BE the binding energy (in MeV) then,

  • BE = [m(A, Z) - Zmp - (A - Z)mn]C2
  • BE = [Zmp+ (A - Z)mn - m(A, Z)]C2
  • BE = [Zmp + Amn - m(A, Z)]C2
  • BE = m(A, Z) - Zmp - (A - Z)mn
