A nucleus with mass number \(240\) breaks into fragments each of mass number \(120.\) The binding energy per nucleon of unfragmented nuclei is \(7.6~\text{MeV}\) while that of fragments is \(8.5~\text{MeV}.\) The total gain in the binding energy in the process is:
1. \(804~\text{MeV}\)
2. \(216~\text{MeV}\)
3. \(0.9~\text{MeV}\)
4. \(9.4~\text{MeV}\)
