The pass of nucleus X is less than the sum of the masses of (A-Z) neutrons and Z 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 m1 and m2 only if (m1+m2) greater than M. Also two light nuclei of masses m1 and m2 can undergo complete fusion and from a heavy nucleus of mass M only if (m1+m2) less than M. The masses of some neutral atoms are given in the table below. The correct statement is:
A) The nucleus U can emit an alpha particle.
B) The nucleus Po can emit a proton.
C) A deuteron and an alpha particle can undergo complete fusion.
D) The nuclei Zn and Se can undergo complete fusion.
