Question
If the binding energy per nucleon of a nuclide is high then
Options
A.It should be abundantly available in nature
B.It will decay instantly
C.It will have a large disintegration constant
D.It will have a small haif-life.
Solution
High binding energy per nucleon ensures very high life of the nuclide. Hence they should be abundant in nature.
