The mass of the
atom 2814 Si is
27.97693 amu. Given that the mass of a proton = 1.0073 amu,
the mass of a neutron = 1.0087 amu and the mass of an electron =
0.00055 amu, calculate
for 2814 Si

a) the mass defect, Δ m (to 5
SFs) = _______
amu

b) the binding energy per atom (to 4
SFs) = _________
MeV/atom

c) the binding energy per nucleon (to 4
SFs) =
______ MeV/nucleon
