The mass defect of the nuclear reaction: 5B8→4Be8+e+{ }_5 {B}^8 \rightarrow{ }_4 {Be}^8+{e}^{+}is
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
m={m}= At. mass of 5B8−{ }_5 {B}^8- At. mass of 4Be8+{ }_4 {Be}^8+ mass of two electron
Option D (m={m}= At. mass of 5B8−{ }_5 {B}^8- At. mass of 4Be8+{ }_4 {Be}^8+ mass of two electron) is correct because the mass defect calculation must account for the positron emission, which effectively removes an electron mass from the product.
