NEET 2014 Physics question
The binding energy per nucleon of and nuclei are 5.60 MeV and 7.06 MeV, respectively. In the nuclear reaction , the value of energy released is
Answer: (4)
Solution
Energy released = (total binding energy of products) (total binding energy of reactants). The proton has no binding energy. $Q = 2×(4× 7.06) - (7× 5.60) = 56.48 - 39.2 = 17.28
