Paragraph:
The mass of a nucleus \({ }_{Z}^{A} X\) is less than the sum of the masses of \((A-Z)\) number of neutrons and \(Z\) number of protons in the nucleus. The energy equivalent to the corresponding mass difference is known as the binding energy of the nucleus. A heavy nucleus of mass \(M\) can break into two light nuclei of masses \(m_{1}\) and \(m_{2}\) only if \(\left(m_{1}+m_{2}\right) \lt M\). Also two light nuclei of masses \(m_{3}\) and \(m_{4}\) can undergo complete fusion and form a heavy nucleus of mass \(M^{\prime}\) only if \(\left(m_{3}+m_{4}\right) \gt M^{\prime}\). The masses of some neutral atoms are given in the table below:

\(\left(1 u=932 M e V / c^{2}\right)\)
