E=mc²- mass energy conversion

Q1. The mass of the beryllium nucleus is 7.01473 u.

What is the binding energy per nucleon of this nucleus?

Use the following data:

mass of proton = 1.00728 u

mass of neutron = 1.00867 u

Q2. What is the mass difference of the nucleus ?

Use the following data:

mass of a proton = 1.00728 u

mass of a neutron = 1.00867 u

mass of a Li nucleus = 7.01436 u

Q3. Uranium-236 undergoes nuclear fission to produce barium-144, krypton-89 and three free neutrons.

What is the energy released in this process?

Nuclide	Binding energy per nucleon / MeV
	7.5
	8.3
	8.6
