Atoms And Nuclei

Nucleus A having \(Z=17\) and equal number of protons and neutrons has \(1.2 ~\mathrm{MeV}\) binding energy per nucleon.

Another nucleus \(\mathrm{B}\) of \(Z=12\) has total 26 nucleons and \(1.8 ~\mathrm{MeV}\) binding energy per nucleons.

The difference of binding energy of \(\mathrm{B}\) and \(\mathrm{A}\) will be _____________ \(\mathrm{MeV}\).
