13. _________________________ The ____ is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom.
14. _______________________ The model in which quarks, leptons, and force carriers make up
the building blocks of matter is called the ____.
15. _______________________ ____ is converted to thermal energy in a fission reaction and is
the energy equivalent of the mass defect.
16. _______________________ ____ is the process of radioactive decay that occurs when a
neutron is changed to a proton within the nucleus of an atom,
and a -particle and an antineutrino are emitted.
17. _______________________ A lesser force acting in the nucleus that is apparent during
radioactive decay is a ____.
18. _______________________ ____ are elementary particles that make up protons, mesons,
and neutrons; together with leptons they appear to make up all
matter in the universe.
19. _______________________ The radioactive process of decay that takes place when the
nucleus of an atom emits a ray is called ____.
20. _______________________ The difference between the sum of the masses of individual
nucleons and the actual mass is the ____.
21. _______________________ A(n) ____ is either a proton or neutron.
22. _______________________ A(n) ____ is a unit of mass equal to 1/12 the mass of the carbon-
12 isotope.
23. _______________________ A(n) ____ refers to the continual process of repeated fission
reactions that result from the release of neutrons from previous
fission reactions.

5. _________________________ The binding energy is the energy equivalent of the mass defect.
6. _________________________ An assembled nucleus has more energy than the separate
protons and neutrons in it.
7. _________________________ The binding energy comes from the nucleus’s converting some of
its mass to energy.
8. _________________________ Because mass is converted to hold the nucleons together, the
mass of an assembled nucleus is less than the sum of the masses
of the nucleons that compose it.
9. _________________________ The mass defect is the total of the sum of the masses of the
individual nucleons and the actual mass.
10. _________________________ The binding energy is calculated using the equation E mc2 to
compute the energy equivalent of the experimentally determined
mass defect.
11. A deuterium nucleus has one proton, one neutron, and one electron. The mass of the deuterium
isotope is 2.014102 u, the mass of a hydrogen atom is 1.007825 u, and the mass of a neutron is
1.008665 u.
a. What is the mass defect for deuterium?
12. A 73 Li has a binding energy of 39.244603 MeV. The mass of a hydrogen atom is 1.007825 u and
the mass of a neutron is 1.008665 u.
a. What is the mass defect for this isotope?
