Problems are listed in approximate order of difficulty. A single dot (•) indicates straightforward problems involving just one main concept and sometimes requiring no more than substitution of numbers in the appropriate formula. Two dots (••) identify problems that are slightly more challenging and usually involve more than one concept. Three dots (•••) indicate problems that are distinctly more challenging, either because they are intrinsically difficult or involve lengthy calculations. Needless to say, these distinctions are hard to draw and are only approximate.
•• (a) The proton separation energy Sp (energy to remove one proton) for 198Hg is 7.1 MeV. Given that the total binding energy of 197Au is 1559.4 MeV, find the total binding energy of 198Hg. (b) Compare your answer with the answer obtained directly from the mass of 198Hg given in Appendix D.
