Question 2

How can a nucleus be described by particular values of A, Z and N when the mass of the nucleus is not equal to Zmp + Nmn, where mp and mn are the masses of free protons and neutrons?
 a. A, Z and N have no intrinsic meaning.
  b. A, Z and N describe the number of particles of given types, but mass has no meaning when part of the mass is elsewhere in the universe.
  c. A, Z and N describe the number of particles an ideal rather than a real nucleus would have.
  d. A, Z and N describe the number of particles of given types in the nucleus, but not their masses in a bound state.
  e. A, Z and N describe the number of particles of given types in the nucleus since the missing mass consists of electrons that are also present in the nucleus.
