A) 0.016767 MeV
B) 1.6758 MeV
C) 0.016758 MeV
D) 16.758 MeV
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
Key Idea: The maximum energy emitted by \[\beta \]-particles is equal to binding energy. Binding/energy = mass defect \[\times 931.5\,MeV\] Given, mass of sulphur = 34.96903 amu Mass of chlorine = 34.96885 amu Mass defect = mass of sulphur - mass of chlorine = 34.96903 - 34.96885 = 0.00018 amu \[\therefore \] Binding energy = mass defect \[\times 931.5\,MeV\] or \[=0.00018\times 931.5\,MeV\] = 0.16767 MeVYou need to login to perform this action.
