JEE MAIN - Physics (2021 - 25th July Evening Shift - No. 22)

From the given data, the amount of energy required to break the nucleus of aluminium $$_{13}^{27}$$Al is __________ x $$\times$$ 10$$-$$3 J.

Mass of neutron = 1.00866 u

Mass of proton = 1.00726 u

Mass of Aluminium nucleus = 27.18846 u

(Assume 1 u corresponds to x J of energy)

(Round off to the nearest integer)
Answer
27

Explanation

$$\Delta$$m = (Zmp + (A $$-$$ Z)mn) $$-$$ MAl

= (13 $$\times$$ 1.00726 + 14 $$\times$$ 1.00866) $$-$$ 27.18846

= 27.21562 $$-$$ 27.18846

= 0.02716 u

E = 27.16 x $$\times$$ 10$$-$$3 J
