NUCLEAR CHEMISTRY: The mass defect of nuclei (150x ) is 1.975 amu. Estimate the total binding energy per nucleon in J/nucleon. (c = 2.998 x 108 m/s) Express your answers in three decimal places in scientific notation, i.e., 6.022e23 to represent 6.022 x 10-3. Do not include the unit.
What happens to teh binding energy if the mass number increases? Explain further
The naturally occurring radioactive isotope 232Th does not make good fission fuel, because it has an even number of neutrons; however, it can be bred into a suitable fuel (much as 238U is bred into 239P ). Confirm that the final nucleus has an odd number of neutrons, making it a better fission fuel.
