Question
The binding energy per nucleon of nuclei are 5.60 MeV and 7.06 MeV, respectively. In the nuclear reaction,
, the value of energy Q released is,
-
19.6 MeV
-
-2.4 MeV
-
8.4 MeV
-
17.3 MeV
Solution
D.
17.3 MeV
The binding energy for is around zero and also not given in the question so we can ignore it,
