∙ 13y agoIf you add up all the masses of all the particles that were involved in a nuclear reaction before it happened and then did the same for after it happened, there would be less mass afterward. That missing mass, called the mass defect, became energy during the reaction in the amount of E = Δm*c2 where E is energy, Δm is the mass defect, and c is the speed of light.

What is the nucleus of an isotope with a certain atomic mass and number?
Nuclide
Standared for the atomic mass unit?
The standard a.m.u. is 1/12th of the mass of a Carbon 12 nuclide.
How does the emission of an alpha particle change the mass number of the parent nuclide?
The mass number decrease with 4.
What does mass defect represent?
The Energy required o form a nucleus from its parts
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.
How does the emission of an alpha particle change the mass number of a parent nuclide?
Mass number of the parent nucleus will be reduced by 4
What is the approximate atomic mass of a nuclide of phosphorus that an atomic number of 15 and that has 16 neutrons?
The atomic mass of phosphorous-31 is 30,97376163(20).
What is mass defect associated with?
nuclear fusion
What nuclide is used as the standard in the relative scale for atomic masses and What is it's assigned atomic mass?
Carbon 12
