1.

The binding energy per nucleon for the parent nucleus is E1 and that for the daughter nuclei is E2. Then(1) E2 = 2E1 (2) E1 > E2 (3) E2 > E1 (4) E1 = 2E2  

Answer»

(3) E2 > E1 

After decay, the daughter nuclei will be more stable hence binding energy per nucleon will be more than that of their parent nucleus.
