Consider the fusion reaction: 1 H 2 + 1 H 2 2 He 3 + 0
Question:
Consider the fusion reaction: 1H2 + 1H2 ⇒ 2He3 + 0n1. From tables of nuclear masses, we can find the masses for the reactants and products in this reaction: H2 2.014 102 u He3 3.016 029 u n 1.008 665 u
a. Find the mass difference ∆m between the reactants and the products for this reaction.
b. Following the procedure used in example box 19.2, convert this mass difference to energy units.
c. Is energy released in this reaction, and if so, where does it go? Explain.
