← ScienceWhich risk increases drastically when nuclear binding energy diminishes?
A)Uncontrolled nuclear chain reaction expansion✓
B)Rate alpha particle emission decreases
C)Increased operational photovoltaic conversion
D)Stronger electromagnetic confinement of plasma
💡 Explanation
Diminished nuclear binding energy increases the risk of uncontrolled nuclear chain reaction expansion via neutron multiplication, because fission fragments separate more easily. Therefore, fission events accelerate, rather than only alpha decay or changes in plasma control.
