The binding energy per nucleon is maximum in the case

The binding energy per nucleon is maximum in the case

Options

  1. A92235U{ }_{92}^{235} \mathrm{U}
  2. B56141Ba{ }_{56}^{141} \mathrm{Ba}
  3. C2656Fe{ }_{26}^{56} \mathrm{Fe}
  4. D42He{ }_4^2 \mathrm{He}

Correct answer

C. 2656Fe{ }_{26}^{56} \mathrm{Fe}

Step-by-step solution

We know that binding energy per nucleon increases with atomic number binding energy for iron is maximum, after that it decreases.
