The mass of ${ }_7 N ^{15}$ is $15.00011 \ amu$,the mass of ${ }_8 O ^{16}$ is $15.99492 \ amu$,and $m_p = 1.00783 \ amu$. Determine the binding energy of the last proton of ${ }_8 O ^{16}$ in $MeV$.

The binding energy for the following nuclear reactions are expressed in $MeV$.
${ }_2 He ^3+{ }_0 n ^1 \rightarrow{ }_2 He ^4+20 \ MeV$
${ }_2 He ^4+{ }_0 n ^1 \rightarrow{ }_2 He ^5-0.9 \ MeV$
If $X_3, X_4, X_5$ denote the stability of ${ }_2 He ^3, { }_2 He ^4$ and ${ }_2 He ^5$, respectively, then the correct order is:

The mass of a proton is $1.0073 \; u$ and that of a neutron is $1.0087 \; u$ ($u =$ atomic mass unit). The binding energy of ${ }_2^4 \text{He}$ is (Given: helium nucleus mass $\approx 4.0015 \; u$):

If the total binding energies of ${ }_1^2 H ,{ }_2^4 He ,{ }_{26}^{56} Fe$ and ${ }_{92}^{235} U$ nuclei are $2.22, 28.3, 492$ and $1786 \text{ MeV}$ respectively,identify the most stable nucleus of the following.

The amount of energy released when one microgram of matter is annihilated is

If $M_o$ is the mass of an oxygen isotope $_8O^{17}$,$M_p$ and $M_N$ are the masses of a proton and a neutron respectively,the nuclear binding energy of the isotope is
