What is the mass defect?

If you add the exact mass of the protons, neutrons, and electrons in an atom you do not get the exact atomic mass of the isotope. The diference is called the mass defect. The difference between the mass of the atomic nucleus and the sum of the masses of the particles within the nucleus is known as the mass defect.


How is nuclear binding energy related to the mass defect?

Nuclear binding energy is the energy required to hold the nucleus together. The mass defect is the difference between the mass of a nucleus and the sum of the masses of its individual protons and neutrons. The mass defect is converted into nuclear binding energy according to Einstein's famous equation, E=mc^2, where E is the energy, m is the mass defect, and c is the speed of light.


What are Two diseases associated with an obstructive ventilatory defect?

Both asthma and emphysema are examples of obstructive ventilatory defect


Why is mass defect important?

E = MC2; energy is equal to a quantity of matter. When protons (and neutrons) combine in an atomic nucleus, the resultant mass is less than that of the individual particles. This is the mass defect, and the 'missing' mass is a result of the energy binding the particles together. The larger the mass defect for a particular atom (isotope), the larger the amount of nuclear binding energy.


What is the binding energy of a mole nuclei with a mass defect of 0.00084?

The binding energy is the mass defect, times the square of the speed of light.The amount stated seems to be an awfully high mass defect, though.


What does mass defect represent?

The Energy required o form a nucleus from its parts


What birth defect is associated with this part?

Your question is not clear. "This part" of what? Are you asking about Spina Bifida or another birth defect? Please clarify your question.


What is the binding energy of a nucleus that has a mass defect of 5.81x10-29?

The mass defect represents the mass converted to binding energy


How is the mass defect determined?

The mass of a nucleus is subtracted from the sum of the masses of its individual components.


What does Emc2 have to do with mass defect?

It allows you to calculate the corresponding energy.


Are genetic defect associated with abnormalities of autosomes or of sex chromosomes?

Genetic defects can be associated with autosome and chromosome abnormalities.


What is the mass of oxygen 16?

If you really meant to ask "What is the mass defect of oxygen-16," this is how you do it. mass defect = # of protons x mass of one proton + # of neutrons x mass of one neutron - mass of the nucleus The atomic number of oxygen-16 is 8, so there are 8 protons. The mass of one proton is approximately 1.0073 amu. The Atomic Mass of oxygen-16 is 16, so there are 8 neutrons in oxygen-16. (Atomic mass of 16 minus atomic number of 8 = # of neutrons in oxygen-16.) The mass of one neutron is approximately 1.0087 amu. The mass of the nucleus of oxygen is 16. Now substitute the values into the "mass defect" equation: mass defect = 8x1.0073+8x1.0087-16=approximately 0.128 amu.
