NEETPhysicsAtoms and NucleiMCQ+4 / −1
Which of the following are suitable for the fusion process ?
- Alight nuclei
- Bheavy nuclei
- Celement lying in the middle of the periodic table
- Dmiddle elements, which are lying on binding energy curve.

Correct answer: A
The nuclei of light elements have a lower binding energy than that for the elements of intermediate mass. They are therefore less stable; consequently the fusion of the light elements results in more stable nucleus.
