If M0 is the mass of an oxygen isotope \({ }_{n} 0^{17}, \mathrm{M}_{\mathrm{p}} \text { and } \mathrm{M}_{\mathrm{n}}\) are the masses of a proton and a neutron, respectively. The nuclear binding energy of the isotope is:
  1. \(\left(M_{a}-8 M_{a}\right) c^{2}\)
  2. \(\left(8 M_{p}+9 M_{n}-M_{n}\right) x^{2}\)
  3. \(M_{n} c^{2}\)
  4. \(\left(M_{a}-17 M_{n}\right] c^{2}\)

Answer

(B) (8 M_ p +9 M_ n -M_ n ) x^ 2
