प्रश्न
The mass of a H-atom is less than the sum of the masses of a proton and electron. Why is this?
उत्तर
Einstein’s mass-energy equivalence gives E = mc2. Thus the mass of an H-atom is `m_p + m_e - B/c^2` where B ≈ 13.6 eV is the binding energy.

The gravitational attraction between electron and proton in a hydrogen atom is weaker than the Coulomb attraction by a factor of about 10−40. An alternative way of looking at this fact is to estimate the radius of the first Bohr orbit of a hydrogen atom if the electron and proton were bound by gravitational attraction. You will find the answer interesting.
