Q. No.The mass of a nucleus is \(0.042~\text{u}\) less than the sum of the masses of all its nucleons. The binding energy per nucleon of the nucleus is near:
1. \(4.6~\text{MeV}\)
2. \(5.6~\text{MeV}\)
3. \(3.9~\text{MeV}\)
4. \(23~\text{MeV}\)

4. \(23~\text{MeV}\)
If \(M(A,~Z)\), \(M_p\), and \(M_n\) denote the masses of the nucleus \(^{A}_{Z}X,\) proton, and neutron respectively in units of \(u\) \((1~u=931.5~\text{MeV/c}^2)\) and represent its binding energy \((BE)\) in \(\text{MeV}\). Then:
| 1. | \(M(A, Z) = ZM_p + (A-Z)M_n- \dfrac{BE}{c^2}\) |
| 2. | \(M(A, Z) = ZM_p + (A-Z)M_n+ BE\) |

4. \(1:1\)
The binding energy of deuteron is \(2.2~\text{MeV}\) and that of \(_2\mathrm{He}^{4}\) is \(28~\text{MeV}\). If two deuterons are fused to form one \(_{2}\mathrm{He}^{4}\), then the energy released is:

The Binding energy per nucleon of \(^{7}_{3}\mathrm{Li}\) and \(^{4}_{2}\mathrm{He}\) nucleon are \(5.60~\text{MeV}\) and \(7.06~\text{MeV}\), respectively.

4. \(17.3~\text{MeV}\)
The energy equivalent of \(0.5~\text g\) of a substance is:

| 2. | change for \(\alpha\) and \(\beta\text-\)radioactivity but not for \(\gamma\text-\)radioactivity |
| 3. | change for \(\alpha\text-\)radioactivity but not for others |
| 4. | change for \(\beta\text-\)radioactivity but not for others |
| 1. | triton energy is less than that of a \(\mathrm{He}^{3}\) nucleus. |
| 2. | the electron created in the beta decay process cannot remain in the nucleus. |
| 3. | both the neutrons in Triton have to decay simultaneously resulting in a nucleus with \(3\) protons, which is not a \(\mathrm{He}^{3}.\) nucleus. |
| 4. | free neutrons decay due to external perturbations which is absent in the Triton nucleus. |
