Question

If the binding energy of N 14 is 7 . 5 MeV per nucleon and that of N 15 is 7 . 7 MeV per nucleon. then the energy required to remove a neutron from N 15 is, 5 . 25 MeV, 0 . 2 MeV, 10 . 5 MeV, 0 . 4 MeV

MARKS App · Accepted Answer

The total binding energy, N 14 = 7 . 5 × 14 MeV N 15 = 7 . 7 × 15 MeV The energy required to remove a neutron from N 15 , E = BE N 15 - BE N 14 E = 7 . 7 × 15 - 7 . 5 × 14 MeV ⇒ E = 10 . 5 MeV
