Statement-II : The difference between the mass of the nucleus and the mass number of the nucleus is called packing fraction.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
Statement-I is true and Statement-II is false
Option D (Statement-I is false and Statement-II is true) is correct because a positive packing fraction implies a smaller binding energy, and the packing fraction is related to the mass defect, not the mass number.
