← ScienceWhich consequence results when nuclide binding energy decreases?
A)Fission reactions become more favorable✓
B)Isotope half-life increases dramatically
C)Fusion barrier penetration is easier
D)Neutron emission probability sharply decreases
💡 Explanation
Reduced binding energy means less energy holds the nucleus together; therefore, fission becomes more favorable because less initial energy is needed to split the nucleus, rather than needing more to fuse it.
