If M(A, Z), Mp and Mn denote the masses of the nucleus AZX, proton and neutron respectively in units of u (1 u = 931.5 MeV/c2) and BE represents its binding energy in MeV, then

1. M(A, Z) = ZMp + (A - Z)Mn - BE
2. M(A, Z) = ZMp + (A - Z)Mn + BE/c2
3. M(A, Z) = ZMp + (A - Z)Mn - BE/c2
4. M(A, Z) = ZMp + (A - Z)Mn + BE

A nucleus AZX has mass represented by M(A, Z). If Mp and Mn denote the mass of proton and neutron respectively and B.E. the binding energy in MeV, then

1. B.E. = [ZMp + (A - Z)Mn - M(A, Z)]c2
2. B.E. = [ZMp + AMp - M(A, Z)]c2
3. B.E. = M(A, Z) - ZMp - (A - Z)Mn
