If M is the mass of a nucleus and A its atomic mass, then the packing fraction is:

Given M = mass of the nucleus, A = atomic mass. The packing fraction is

The mass of a nucleus in its ground state is

Assertion Positive value of packing fraction implies a large value of binding energy. Reason The ratio of the difference between the atomic mass of nucleus and the mass number of the nucleus to that of atomic mass is called packing fraction.

Assertion Positive value of packing fraction implies a large value of binding energy. Reason The ratio of the difference between the atomic mass of nucleus and the mass number of the nucleus to that of atomic mass is called packing fraction.
