Question
Which of the following statement(s) is (are) correct ?
Options
A.The rest mass of a stable nucleus is less than the sum of the rest masses of its seprated nucleons
B.The rest mass of a stable nucleus is greater than the sum of the rest masses of its seprated nucleons
C.In nuclear fission, energy is released by fusing two nuclei of medium mass (approximately 100 amu)
D.In nuclear fission, energy is released by fregmentation of very heavy nucleus
Solution
In nuclear fusion, two or more lighter nuclei are combined to from a relatively heavy nucleus and thus, releasing the energy.
