Binding energy - the energy to take an atom apart
Unified Mass Units: (u)
C 12 (neutral atom) = 12.0000000 u (defined)
1 u = 1.6605 x 10-27 kg = 931.5 MeV (show c = 2.998x108 m/s)
Electron = .00054858 u (not useful)
Proton = 1.007276 u (not useful)
H (neutral atom) = 1.007825 u (very useful)
Neutron = 1.008665 u (very useful)
Binding energy - the energy to take an atom apart
H (neutral atom) = 1.007825 u (very useful)
Neutron = 1.008665 u (very useful)
1 u = 931.5 MeV
To take an atom apart:
C 14 has a mass of 14.003242 u (p. 1064 in text)
C 14 can be taken apart into:
6 H atoms:
6(1.007825 u) (i.e. 6 p + 6 e)
8 Neutrons:
8(1.008665 u)
Total “taken apart” mass = 6(1.007825 u) + 8(1.008665 u)
Total “taken apart” mass = 14.116270 u
Mass “defect” = 14.11627 u - 14.003242 u = 0.113028 u
0.113028 u - Represents energy needed to take atom apart
Binding energy = (0.113028 u)(931.5 MeV/u) = 105.3 MeV

Binding energy - the energy to take an atom apart
H (neutral atom) = 1.007825 u (very useful)
Neutron = 1.008665 u (very useful)
1 u = 931.5 MeV
Binding energy in general
1. Look neutral atom mass in Appendix F (p 1064)
2. Break atom into H and n
3. Subtract neutral atom mass from taken apart mass
4. Multiply mass defect by 931.5 Mev/u

What is the binding energy for Carbon
12? (Z = 6)
C 12 mass = 12.000000 u (duh?)
H = 1.007825 u
Neutron = 1.008665 u
1 u = 931.5 MeV
Atom mass = 12.000000
6H + 6n = 6(1.007825 u) +6(1.008665 u) = 12.09894 u
Binding energy = (12.098940 – 12.000000)931.5 MeV/u
= 92.16 MeV
Binding energy per nucleon:
C 12: 92.16/12 = 7.68 MeV/nucleon
C 14: 105.3/14 = 7.52 MeV/nucleon (less)

Carbon 10? (Z = 6)
C 10 mass = 10.231610 u
H = 1.007825 u
Neutron = 1.008665 u
1 u = 931.5 MeV
Atom mass = 10.231610
6H + 4n = 6(1.007825 u) +4(1.008665 u) = 10.08161 u
Binding energy = (10.08161 - 10.23161)931.5 MeV/u
