Determine the minimum amount of energy (in MeV) needed to remove a neutron from a 88Sr nucleus. (For all masses, keep six places beyond the decimal point when performing your calculations. Then round your final answer to at least three significant figures.)

Answer:

  11.106 Mev.

Explanation:

Sr⁸⁸         →        Sr ⁸⁷      +       ₀n¹

87.905612       86.908877       1.008664   ( atomic masses in amu )

mass defect = ( 86.908877 + 1.008664) - 87.905612 = .011929 amu.

Equivalent energy in MeV = .011929 x 931 = 11.106 MeV
