Nuclear Stability
Some nuclides are stable,
existing indefinitely, e.g. 126C
Others are unstable and are thus radioactive
14 C

These nuclides decay spontaneously to more stable
nuclides.

Calculate the binding energy per nucleon
for the isotopic species 3517Cl (mass 34.96885 amu.)
• Step 1 - write balanced nuclear equation.
• Step 2 - determine mass defect ...m.
• Step 3 - convert ∆m to ∆E
(1 amu = 931.494 MeV)
• Step 4 - convert ∆E to Eb ( sign change ) and
divide by the number of nucleons in the nucleus.

• Binding energy per nucleon initially
increases with atomic mass.
• Maximum stability is reached in the vicinty
of 56Fe, which has Eb/A = 8.8 MeV.
• Stability decreases slightly for successively
heavier elements.
