Question

The binding energies of the atoms of elements P and Q are Ep and EQ, respectively. Three atoms of element Q fuse to form one atom of element P. In this process, the energy released is e. The correct relation between EP,EQ and e will be
  1. EQ=3EPe
  2. EP=3EQe
  3. EP=3EQ+e
  4. EQ=3EP+e

A
EQ=3EP+e
B
EP=3EQ+e
C
EP=3EQe
D
EQ=3EPe
Solution
Verified by Toppr

Binding energy of 3 Q elements will be 3EQ
So, by energy conservation, binding energy of three P elements is equal to the sum of Q element's binding energy and the released energy.
So, equation is
Ep+e=3EQ
Ep=3EQe
