19. Sample Problem, continued Chapter 22 Section 1 The Nucleus 2. Plan Choose an equation or situation: First, find the mass defect with the following relationship: m = Z (atomic mass of H) + Nm n – atomic mass Then, find the binding energy by converting the mass defect to rest energy.
29. Nuclear Stability and Nuclear Decay Chapter 22 Section 2 Nuclear Decay The black dots represent stable nuclei, and the red dots represent unstable nuclei. Each black dot on the right corresponds to a data point in the circled portion on the left.
