Vedclass · Answer

(B) Energy is released in a nuclear reaction if the total binding energy of the products is greater than the total binding energy of the reactants. This corresponds to an increase in the specific binding energy (binding energy per nucleon).From the graph:$1$. For $1 $2$. For $100 $3$. For $200 If two nuclei with mass numbers in the range $51 < A < 100$ (each with specific binding energy $2 	ext{ MeV/nucleon}$) fuse to form a nucleus with mass number in the range $100 < A < 200$ (with specific binding energy $8 	ext{ MeV/nucleon}$),the final state has a higher specific binding energy. Thus,energy is released.

Assume the graph of specific binding energy versus mass number is as shown in the figure. Using this graph,select the correct choice from the following.
