1 Lesson 27: The Nucleus Part 1: Elements and Isotopes The atom is made up of three kinds of subatomic particles: Particle Mass (kg) Charge (C) Proton Neutron Electron Elements: Isotopes: Isotope Notation: Example: Uranium-235 The atomic mass unit: The atomic mass unit is an alternative unit of mass used for very small particles. The atomic mass unit is, by definition, the average mass of a nucleon in the carbon-12 isotope. Example: Convert the mass of the proton, neutron and electron into atomic mass units Proton Neutron Electron Uranium-238

2 Your Physics 30 periodic table: The masses given on the periodic table were found using a mass spectrometer: Velocity Selector Mass Spectrometer (ion separator) B1 B2

3 Example: A singly charged ion passes through the velocity selector of a mass spectrometer undeflected. Then they enter the separation region and are deflected with a radius of 8.12 m. What is the mass in atomic mass units? Part 2: Mass Defect and Nuclear Binding Energy The mass of each isotope for each element has been measured precisely using a mass spectrometer. But when scientists predict what the mass of each isotope should be, based on the number of protons and neutrons found in the nucleus, they find a discrepancy between the predicted amount and the actual measured value. Example: The mass defect: Isotope Symbol Protons Neutrons Predicted Mass (u) Actual Mass (u) Oxygen Oxygen Oxygen

4 Where did the mass go? When a nucleus forms, a certain amount of energy is needed to hold all the nucleons together. Einstein s Formula: For Oxygen-16, the nuclear binding energy is: Example: What is the nuclear binding energy for the helium-4 nucleus if the measured mass of helium is u? Units of energy: Convert joules to ev: Convert ev to MeV:

5 Another alternative unit of mass: MeV/c 2 The MeV/c 2 is another alternative unit of mass used in nuclear and particle physics. This unit tells us the amount of MeV that would be released if the entire mass of a particle were converted into energy. Example: The mass of lithium-7 is u. What is the mass of the lithium nucleus in MeV/c 2? Units of Mass: Convert kg to u: Convert kg to MeV/c 2 : Practice Problems: 1. What is the binding energy in one atom of strontium-86 ( u)? What is the binding energy per nucleon? ( MeV, MeV/nucleon) 2. Isotopes are separated by a mass spectrometer. Ions are accelerated through a potential difference and then allowed to pass through a velocity selector. The velocity selector is composed of a uniform T magnetic field and a uniform electric field perpendicular to each other. If the electric field is produced using parallel plates that are 1.50 cm apart, what is the potential difference between the plates that will permit singly charged ions with a speed of 4.20 x 10 5 m/s to pass undeflected through the selector? (252 V) 3. Single charged ions pass undeflected through the velocity selector of a mass spectrometer. This velocity selector has a magnetic field of T and an electric field of 7000 V/m perpendicular to each other. These ions then enter a separation region where the magnetic field is the same as in the velocity selector. If the radius of the deflected ions is 8.13 mm, what is the mass of each ion? (1.16 x kg) 4. An ion source contains two isotopes of magnesium: 25 ( u) and 12Mg ( u). These ions travel undeflected through the velocity selector (B = T, E = 4.60 x 10 5 V/m) of a mass spectrometer. If both ions are doubly charged, how far apart are the ions in the ion detector (B = T)? ( m) 24 12Mg 5. A singly charged carbon ion travels in a circular path (r = 11.3 cm) through the ion?

6 separation region (B = T) of a mass spectrometer. If the velocity selector has a magnetic field of T and an electric field of 7.50 x 10 4 V/m perpendicular to each other, what is the mass number of the carbon isotope? (13) 6. Determine the mass defect of an atom of cobalt-59 which has a measured atomic mass of Express your answer in atomic mass units and kilograms. ( u, x kg) 7. Two isotopes of chlorine occur in nature. Their natural abundance is measured with a mass spectrometer. The chlorine-35 isotope has an atomic mass of u and a natural abundance of %. The chlorine-37 isotope has anatomic mass of and a natural abundance of %. By a calculation of your own, verify that the value of on the periodic table is a weighted average of the isotopes. 8. Find the binding energy in MeV for lithium-7 (atomic mass = u). ( MeV) 9. For radium-226 (atomic mass = u) obtain (a) the mass defect, (b) the binding energy in MeV, and (c) the binding energy per nucleon. ( u, MeV, MeV/nucleon)
