Why is the nuclear binding energy for 4He greater than that for 31P?

A) Because the nulceons of He are more closely packed than any other element. B) Because helium has an even number of both protons and neutrons. C) Because helium is one of the noble gases, with a full electron shell and thus a stable nuclear number. D) Because 31P is one of the few unstable isotopes of one of the smaller elements. E) It is not; the nuclear binding energy becomes greater for heavier elements. A) Because the nulceons of He are more closely packed than any other element.
