A Certain Mass Of Hydrogen Is Changed To Helium By Physics Question

A certain mass of Hydrogen is changed to Helium by the process of fusion. The mass defect in fusion reaction is 0.02866 a.m.u. The energy liberated per a.m.u. is (Given : 1 a.m.u. = 931 MeV)

Options

(a) 26.7 MeV
(b) 6.675 MeV
(c) 13.35 MeV
(d) 2.67 MeV

Correct Answer:

6.675 MeV

Explanation:

Mass defect m = 0.02866 a.m.u.
Energy = 0.02866 x 931 = 26.7 MeV
As ₁H² + ₁H² → ₂He⁴
Energy liberated per a.m.u. = 13.35/2 MeV = 6.675 MeV
