As the mass number increase binding energy per nucleon :

As the mass number A increases, the binding energy per nucleon in a nucleus.

Assertion: Energy is released when heavy nuclei undergo fission or light nuclei undergo fusion. Reason: For heavy nuclei, binding energy per nucleon increases with increasing Z while for light nuclei it decreases with increasing Z.

The dependence of binding energy per nucleon, B_(N) on the mass number, A, is represented by

Assertion: The nuclear energy can be obtained by the nuclear fission of heavier nuclei as well as by fusion of lighter nuclei. Reason: As the mass number increases, the binding energy per nucleon, first increases and then decreases.

This question contains Statement - 1 and Statement -2 Of the four choice given after the Statements , choose the one that best decribes the two Statements Statement- 1: Energy is reased when heavy underge fission or light nuclei undergo fasion and Statement- 2: for nuclei , binding energy nucleon increases with increasing Z while for light nuclei it decreases with increasing Z

Define binding energy of a nucleus. Draw a curve between mass number and average binding energy per nucleon. On the basis of this curve, explain fusion and fission reactions.
