The mass of $$_{7}N^{15}$$ is $$15.0011\ amu$$, mass of $$_{8}O^{16}$$ is $$15.99492\ amu$$ and $$m_{P} = 1.00783\ amu$$. Determine binding energy of last proton of $$_{8}O^{16}$$.

A$$2.13\ MeV$$
B$$0.13\ MeV$$
C$$10\ MeV$$
D$$12.13\ MeV$$
Correct Answer

Solution

$$M(_{8}O_{16}) = M(_{7}N^{15}) + 1m_{P}$$
binding energy of last proton
$$= M(N^{15}) + m_{P} - M(_{1}O^{16})$$
$$= 15.00011 + 1.00783 - 15.99492$$
$$= 0.01302\ amu = 12.13\ MeV$$.
