    Assume that the nuclear binding energy per nucleon (B/A) versus mass number [A] is as shown in the figure. Use this plot to choose the correct choice(s) given below.  

    A) Fusion of two nuclei with mass numbers lying in the range of \[1 < A < 50\] will release energy

    B) Fusion of two nuclei with mass numbers lying in the range of \[51<A<100\] will release energy

    C) Fission of a nucleus lying in the mass range of \[100 < A < 200\] will release energy when broken into two equal fragments

    D) ?Fission of a nucleus lying in the mass range of \[200 < A < 360\] will release energy when broken into two equal fragments

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    If in nuclear reaction binding energy per nucleon increases, energy is released.
