Statement-I: Nuclei having mass number about 60 are most stable.
Statement-II: When two or more light nuclei are combined into a heavier nucleus, then the binding energy per nucleon will increase.
Statement-II: When two or more light nuclei are combined into a heavier nucleus, then the binding energy per nucleon will increase.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
Statement-I and Statement-II are true
Option A (Statement-I and Statement-II are true) is correct because nuclei around mass number 60 are indeed the most stable, and fusion of lighter nuclei increases the binding energy per nucleon.
