1. The binding energy of a nucleus is the energy required to separate a nucleus into its constituent protons and neutrons. It reflects the stability of the nucleus, with higher binding energy indicating greater stability. For more visit here: https://www.tiwariacademy.com/ncert-solutions/class-12/physiRead more

  2. No, ³₂He and ³₁H nuclei do not have the same binding energy. Although they have the same mass number, their nuclear structures and binding energies differ, as binding energy depends on proton-neutron interactions and nuclear stability.

  3. The energy production in the Sun is primarily due to the proton-proton chain reaction. In this process, hydrogen nuclei fuse to form helium, releasing vast amounts of energy in the form of light and heat.

  4. The daughter nucleus would have a higher binding energy per nucleon. Fusion typically results in a more stable, heavier nucleus, where nucleons are more tightly bound, releasing energy. This is because the binding energy increases with atomic mass. For more visit here: https://www.tiwariacademy.com/Read more
