Which outcome indicates increased nuclear stability after fusion?

💡 Explanation

Fusion increases stability via increased average binding energy; adding nucleons increases overall energy because strong interactions dominate. Therefore, the nucleus becomes more stable, rather than becoming less nucleon-dense or having increased neutrino emission rates.
