← ScienceWhich mechanism causes increased energy release, when isotopes join?
A)Increased nuclear binding energy✓
B)Reduced surface plasma tension
C)Enhanced beta electrostatic repulsion
D)Suppressed quantum vacuum fluctuation
💡 Explanation
Nuclear fusion releases energy because the resulting nucleus has a higher nuclear binding energy per nucleon; therefore more energy is released, rather than being consumed as in nuclear fission with heavier nuclei.
