Question

The binding energy per nucleon for deuteron and helium are 1.1 MeV and 7.0 MeV. The energy released when two deuterons ruse to form a helium nucleus is: (A) 23.6 MeV (B) 2.2 MeV (C) 30.2 MeV (D) 3.6 MeV

Ratio of n/p will decrease 21H2 xrightarrow2He4+Q Energy released Q=4× 7-4× 1.1 =23.6MeV

Q. The binding energy per nucleon for deuteron and helium are $1.1$ MeV and $7.0$ MeV. The energy released when two deuterons ruse to form a helium nucleus is:

23.6 MeV

2.2 MeV

30.2 MeV

3.6 MeV

28.0 MeV

Ratio of n/p will decrease
$2_{1} H^{2}_{2} H e^{4} + Q$
Energy released
$Q = 4 \times 7 - 4 \times 1.1$
$= 23.6 M e V$
