Question 291: Atoms & Nuclei

Question

The binding energy per nucleon of deuteron $$\left( {{}_1^2\,H} \right)$$ and helium nucleus $$\left( {{}_2^4\,He} \right)$$ is $$1.1$$ $$MeV$$ and $$7$$ $$MeV$$ respectively. If two deuteron nuclei react to form a single helium nucleus, then the energy released is

Accepted Answer

The nuclear reaction of process is $$2_1^2H 	o {4 \over 2}$$ He
Energy released $$ = 4 	imes \left( 7 ight) - 4\left( {1.1} ight) = 23.6\,MeV$$

Answer

$$23.6\,\,MeV$$

Answer

$$26.9\,\,MeV$$

Answer

$$13.9\,\,MeV$$

Answer

$$19.2\,\,MeV$$
