Which outcome occurs when helium-4 gains a neutron?

💡 Explanation

Adding a neutron to helium-4 forms helium-5, but the strong nuclear force interaction is not optimized; the average binding energy decreases because the weak nuclear force is relatively unchanged; therefore helium-5 will decay, unstable, rather than become stable increasing the potential.
