A

Is not important because nuclear forces are short –ranged

B

Is as important as electrostatic force for binding the two atoms

C

Cancels the repulsive electrostatic force between the nuclei

D

Is not important because oxygen nucleus have equal number of neutrons and protons

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
