Respuesta :

Z times the mass of a hydrogen atom.

When calculating the binding energy, z multiplied by the sum of mass of proton and mass of electron.

What is z in binding energy?

Z in binding energy calaculation is the number of protons in the nuclides.

Formula for binding energy

To calculate the binding energy we use the formula below;

E = Z (mp + me) + Nmn − mn

Where;

  • Z is the number of protons in the nuclides
  • N is the number of neutrons
  • mp is mass of proton
  • me is mass of electron

Thus, when calculating the binding energy, z multiplied by the sum of mass of proton and mass of electron.
