Which of the following has the most stable nucleus? (Binding energy is given in the table)
Nucleus | Binding Energy(B.E) |
2He4 | 28 MeV |
3Li7 | 42 MeV |
6C12 | 53 MeV |
Nucleus | B.E | B.EA |
2He4 | 28 MeV | 7 MeV |
3Li7 | 42 MeV | 6 MeV |
6C12 | 53 MeV | 4.4 MeV |
Why this Question? Greater the B.E per nucleon, greater will be stability. stability∝B.EA |
