Question
When two light nuclei fuse to form a relatively heavier nucleus, the specific binding energy of the product nucleus is:
✓
Answer
- Greater than that of the reacting nuclei
The binding energy of the product nucleus will be greater than that of the reacting nuclei, because when two light nuclei fuse to form relatively heavier nucleus, energy is released. And the higher the binding energy, the more stable the nucleus is.

Consider two processes on a system as shown in figure.
The volumes in the initial states are the same in the two processes and the volumes in the final states are also the same. Let $\Delta\text{W}_1$ and $\Delta\text{W}_2$ be the work done by the system in the processes $A$ and $B$ respectively.
