Q3) This problem uses the semi-empirical mass formula to investigate the masses of isobars with A=100 and their decays. D Using the semi-empirical mass formula (SEMF) for atomic masses, predict the isobar of A=100 with the lowest mass. II) The mass of 3Tc is 99.90765 u compared to 99.9042197 u for 100Ru. Which terms in the SEMF change between the two nuclei? Calculate the change in each contribution. Compare the overall difference in mass for the two nuclei predicted by the SEMF with the experimental value for the difference in mass. 100- 44 100 III) List the possible decay modes for 19Tc and the energy released in each decay. Note, 92MO 100- 43 has a mass of 99.907477 u.
