Sketch a graph showing the variation of binding energy per nucleon with mass number, clearly showing the fusion and fissions and use the sketch to explain how energy is released in each of the process of fusion and fission.

• Two Small nuclei with atomic mass less than 56 each fuse to give a heavier nuclei with smaller mass by higher binding energy to increase stability of nucleon
• A nucleus with atomic mass higher than 56 split to form lighter nuclei of higher binding energy per nuclei.
