Consider the following statements and and identify the correct answer given below: Statement: Positive values of packing fraction, implies a large value of binding energy. Statement: The difference between the mass of the nucleus and the mass number of the nucleus, is called packing fraction.

Question

Consider the following statements and and identify the correct answer given below: Statement: Positive values of packing fraction, implies a large value of binding energy. Statement: The difference between the mass of the nucleus and the mass number of the nucleus, is called packing fraction. (A) A and B are correct (B) A and Bare false (C) A is true B is false (D) A is false, B is true

Mass defect per nucleon in the nucleus is called the packing fraction. i.e., Packing fraction f=(M-A/A) When M = mass of atom, A = mass number packing fraction of nuclear is closely related with binding energy. It is different for different elements. Hence, statements A and B both are false.

Q. Consider the following statements and and identify the correct answer given below: Statement: Positive values of packing fraction, implies a large value of binding energy. Statement: The difference between the mass of the nucleus and the mass number of the nucleus, is called packing fraction.

A and B are correct

A and Bare false

A is true B is false

A is false, B is true

Mass defect per nucleon in the nucleus is called the packing fraction. i.e., Packing fraction f=AM−A​ When M = mass of atom, A = mass number packing fraction of nuclear is closely related with binding energy. It is different for different elements. Hence, statements A and B both are false.
