For nuclei with `A gt 100`,
(i) the binding energy of the nucleus decreases on an averages as `A` increases
(ii) the binding enegry per nucleon decreases on an averages as `A` increases
(iii) if the nucleus breaks into two roughly equal parts, enegry is released
(iv) if two nuclei fuse to from a bigger nucleus, energy is released

A

the binding energy of the nucleus decreases on an average as `A` increases
