(C) The nuclear binding energy of a nucleus is defined as the energy equivalent of the mass defect,given by the formula:$B.E. = \Delta m c^2 = (\text{mass of nucleons} - \text{mass of nucleus}) c^2$where $\Delta m$ is the mass defect.For the oxygen isotope $_8O^{17}$:Number of protons $(p)$ = $8$Number of neutrons $(n)$ = $17 - 8 = 9$Mass of nucleons = $8 M_p + 9 M_n$Mass of the nucleus = $M_o$Therefore,the binding energy is:$B.E. = (8 M_p + 9 M_n - M_o) c^2$
