Question

Calculate the nuclear binding energy of Mn(A=55 ,z=25) in joules.

The atomic mass of 5525Mn is 54.938 amu

The speed of light is c= 3.00×108 m/s

The mass of a proton is 1.0073 amu

The mass of a neutron is 1.0087 amu

The mass of an electron is 5.4858×10−4 amu

1 kg=6.022×1026 amu

1 J=1 kg⋅m2/s2

1 MeV=1.602×10−13 J
