Blology unit to measure energy?

In biology, or elsewhere, the official unit for energy is the Joule. When talking about individual atoms or molecules, the unit electron-volt is also often used, for example, for the binding energy.In biology, or elsewhere, the official unit for energy is the Joule.

Why is the mass of an atoms electrons not included in the atoms mass number?

Mass number is defined as the number of protons and neutrons. It is related to Atomic Mass which incudes electron mass and nuclear binding energy , (binding energy reduces the overall mass relative to the combined masses of the protons and neutrons.) Electron mass is not included as mass number is element specific wheras the count of electrons varies depending on the chemical state. The mass of electrons is negligible compared to the mass of the protons and neutrons, binding energy is a larger effect.


What is meant by recoil electron in compton scattering?

when any incident rays or electromagnetic radiation collides with a target then a electron releases from the outer shell of the atom or molecule,having a high wavelength.this is called recoiling of electron in compton effect
