Question

What is the average binding energy per nucleon over a wide range ?
  1. 8.8MeV
  2. 7.6MeV
  3. 8MeV
  4. 1.1MeV

A
8.8MeV
B
1.1MeV
C
8MeV
D
7.6MeV
Solution
Verified by Toppr

The average binding energy per nucleon is just the total binding energy divided by the number of nucleons.
If we consider Na atom, its binding energy is 194 MeV.
Its binding energy per nucleon is given by 194MeV24=8.08MeV
