If an electron and a positron annihilate,then the energy released is

The mass of the oxygen isotope $_8O^{17}$ is $M_0$. If $M_p$ and $M_n$ are the masses of a proton and a neutron respectively,the nuclear binding energy of the isotope is ......

$A$ nuclide $1$ is said to be the mirror isobar of nuclide $2$ if $Z_1 = N_2$ and $Z_2 = N_1$. $(a)$ What nuclide is a mirror isobar of $_{11}^{23}Na$? $(b)$ Which nuclide out of the two mirror isobars has greater binding energy and why?

The figure shows a plot of binding energy per nucleon $E_b$ against the nuclear mass $M$. $A, B, C, D, E, F$ correspond to different nuclei. Consider four reactions:
$(i) \, A + B \to C + \varepsilon$
$(ii) \, C \to A + B + \varepsilon$
$(iii) \, D + E \to F + \varepsilon$
$(iv) \, F \to D + E + \varepsilon$
where $\varepsilon$ is the energy released. In which reactions is $\varepsilon$ positive?
