If in a nuclear fusion process, the masses of the fusing nuclei be m₁ and m₂ and the mass of the resultant nucleus be m₃, then

Options

(a) m₃=m₁+m₂
(b) m₃=(m₁-m₂)
(c) m₃<(m₁+m₂)
(d) m₃>(m₁+m₂)

Correct Answer:

m₃<(m₁+m₂)

Explanation:

(m₁+m₂) = m₃ + binding energy equivalent to mass

⇒ (m₁+m₂) > m₃

⇒ m₃<(m₁+m₂)
