\mathrm{ \text { For Nucleus A } }
\mathrm{Z}=17=\text { Nummber of protons }           \mathrm{Given\left ( Z=N \right )\therefore N=17}
\mathrm{A}=34=\mathrm{Z}+\mathrm{N}
\mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{bn}}=1.2 \mathrm{MeV}
\frac{\mathrm{\left(\mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{B}}\right)_1 }}{A}=1.2 \mathrm{MeV}
\left(\mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{B}}\right)_1=(1.2 \mathrm{MeV}) \times \mathrm{A}
\left(\mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{B}}\right)_1=(1.2 \mathrm{MeV}) \times 34
\left(\mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{B}}\right)_1=40.8 \mathrm{MeV} \rightarrow \text { Binding energy of Nucleus } \mathrm{A}
