Question:

56Fe is among the most tightly bound of all nuclides. It is more than 90% of natural iron. Note that 56Fe has even numbers of both protons and neutrons. Calculate BE/A, the binding energy per nucleon, for 56Fe and compare it with the approximate value obtained from the graph in Figure 31.24.

Data from figure 31.24

Binding energy per nucleon (MeV per nucleon) BE A 9 CO 7 5 + 3 Cu 1 0 20Ne 160 12CH "Hel 11B Li Li He F 24Mg
