Question # 1

Define mass defect and binding energy.

  • Ans 1: Mass defect: The mass of the nucleus is always less than the total mass of the protons and neutrons that make up the nucleus,The difference of the two masses is called mass defect.
    Binding energy:The missing mass is converted into energy at the formation of the nucleus and is called binding energy.

Question # 1

Distinguished between nuclear fission and nuclear fusion.

  • Ans 1: Nuclear Fission: Such a reaction in which a heavy nuclei like that of uranium splits up into two of roughly equal size along with the emission of energy is called fission reaction.
  • Ans 2: Nuclear Fusion:A reaction in which two lights nuclei merge to form a heavy nucleus is called fusion reaction.It require very high temperature.

Question # 1

Why are heavy nuclei unstable?

  • Ans 1: Heavy nuclei are unstable because their binding energy per nucleon is less than lighter nuclei.So less energy is required to break heavy nuclei and they become unstable.
