MCQ
What is the average binding energy per nucleon over a wide range?
  • A
    8MeV
  • B
    8.8MeV
  • C
    7.6MeV
  • D
    1.1MeV

Answer

  1. 8MeV

Explanation:

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 194MeV. 

Its binding energy per nucleon is given by $\frac{194\text{MeV​}}{24}$

= 8.08MeV
