The binding energy of a hydrogen atom is 13.6 eV.(a) What is the decrease in mass that occurs when a hydrogen atom is formed from a proton and a neutron? Express the result in atomic mass units (u) and in mass percent of hydrogen.(b) What is the decrease in mass that occurs when a helium nucleus is formed from two protons and two neutrons? Express the result in atomic mass units (u) and in percent of the mass of the helium nucleus.(c) Compare your answers to items (a) and (b). Why do we hear that mass "loss" occurs in nuclear reactions but not in chemical reactions (Lavoisier's Law)?
