For nuclei with Agt100 , mark the INCORRECT statement:

The binding energy per nucleon, for nuclei with atomic mass number A gt 100 , decreases with A . The nuclear forces are weak for heavier nuclei.

Assertion (A): The binding energy per nucleon, for nuclei with mass number (A) gt 56 decreases with A. Reason (R): Nuclear force is weak in heavier nuclei.

When two nuclei (with A=8) join to form a heavier nucleus , the binding energy (B.E) per nucleon of the heavier nuclei is
