2H is a loosely bound isotope of hydrogen, called deuterium or heavy hydrogen. It is stable but relatively rare — it form only 0.015% of natural hydrogen. Note that deuterium has Z = N, which should tend to make it more tightly bound, but both are odd numbers. Required:
Calculate BE/A, the binding energy per nucleon, for 2H in megaelecton volts per nucleon

0.88 MeV/nucleon

Explanation:

The binding energy (B) per nucleon of deuterium can be calculated using the following equation:

Where:

Z: is the number of protons = 1

N: is the number of neutrons = 1

: is the proton's mass = 1.00730 u

: is the neutron's mass = 1.00869 u

M: is the nucleu's mass = 2.01410

A = Z + N = 1 + 1 = 2    

Now, the binding energy per nucleon for ²H is:

Therefore, the binding energy per nucleon for ²H is 0.88 MeV/nucleon.

a high pressure system is a dense air mass that is usually cooler and drier than the surrounding air. a low pressure system is a less dense air mass that is usually wetter and warmer than the surrounding air.

in general, areas that experience high atmospheric pressure also experience fair weather. low pressure systems can cause the formation of clouds and storms. air usually flows from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure..
