Question

Calculate binding energy per nucleon (in MeV) of ¹²₆C. Given : m(¹²₆C) = 12.000000 u, m(¹₀n) = 1.008665 u, m(¹₁H) = 1.007825 u

The radius of the nth orbit in Bohr model of hydrogen atom is proportional to :

Draw a graph showing the variation of binding energy per nucleon as a function of mass number A. The binding energy per nucleon for heavy nuclei (A > 170) decreases with the increase in mass number. Explain.

State Bohr's postulate to explain stable orbits in a hydrogen atom. Prove that the speed with which the electron revolves in nth orbit is proportional to (1/n).
