Nuclei of the same mass number but different Z are isobars. (1) Calculate the bonding energies per nucleon for the isobars boron-12, carbon-12, and nitrogen-12. (2) In which of the terms of the semi-empirical binding energy formula do these binding energies differ, calculate the differences.

Potassium-40 has a half life of 1.26*10^9 years, decaying to calcium-40 and argon-40 in ratio of 8.54 to 1. if a rock sample comtained no argon when it formed a solid but now contains one argon-40 atom for every potassium-40 atom, how old is the rock?

Alpha particles of a certain initial kinetic energy are projected at nuclei with atomic number Z = 60. The closest distance of approach of the alpha particles to the nucleus is 100 fm (fm = femtometer = 10-15 m). If alpha particles of the same initial kinetic energy are projected at nuclei with atomic number 88, what is the distance of closest approach? Give your answer in fm. (Enter the number only -- do not include the units in your...

Is Atomic Mass and Atomic Weight the same terms? Or is Atomic mass and Mass Number the same terms? On the MCAT Kaplan books it says that atomic mass and mass number are the same thing but online and other chemistry textbooks, atomic mass and atomic weight are the same thing. Can someone please clarify which two terms are the same thing or are they all different? I really need help to make sure I understand this for the MCAT.
