Two deuterons undergo nuclear fusion to form a Helium nucleus. Energy released in this process is (given binding energy per nucleon for deuteron = 1.1 MeV and for helium = 7.0 MeV)

View answer and explanation

Correct option: C

23.6 MeV

Option C (23.6 MeV) is correct because the energy released is the difference between the binding energy of the helium nucleus and the total binding energy of the two deuterons.
