Calculate the nuclear binding energy of a 32/16 s atom. the measured atomic mass of 32/16 s is 31.972 070 u.

4.993 ×10⁻¹¹ J

Explanation:

The nuclear binding energy is the energy equivalent to the mass defect.

The mass defect is the difference between the mass of a nucleus and the sum of the masses of its nucleons.

Calculate the mass defect

  16 p = 16 × 1.007 28 u =  16.116 48  u

  16 n = 16 × 1.008 67 u =  16.138 72  u

Total mass of nucleons = 32.255 20 u

             - Mass of S-32 = 31.972 070 u

                 Mass defect =  0.283 13   u

Convert the unified atomic mass units to kilograms.

Mass defect

Use Einstein’s equation to convert the mass defect into energy

you gotta add the following molecules so we can give u an answer

explanation:

a. the law of proportion states the combination of 2 atoms in a specific ratio to produce multiple compounds such as the given statement of question ‘1st compound contains 88.8 % cu ’ indicates 88.8 g of cu is present along with 11.2 g oxygen in 100 g of compound whereas the statement ‘2st compound contains 79.9 % cu ’ indicates 79.9 g of cu is present along with 20.1 g oxygen in 100 g of compound

1st compound contains 88.8 g cu

for cu

m = 63 g /mol

atomic % = 88.8 /63 = 1.42

for o

m = 16 g /mol

atomic % = 11.2 /16 = 0.7

b. the emperical formula of 1st compound is

cu1.4o0.7
