MCQ
The average binding energy per nucleon is maximum for the nucleus:
  • A
    2​H4
  • B
    8​O16
  • C
    26​Fe56
  • D
    92​U238

Answer

  1. 26​Fe56

Explanation:

Binding energy per nucleon increases with atomic number. The greater the binding energy per nucleon the more stable is the nucleus.

For 26​Fe56 number of nucleons is 56.

This is most stable nucleus, since maximum energy is needed to pull a nucleon away from it.
