Consider the nuclear reaction ,
`""_1H^2 + ""_1H^3 to ""_2He^4 + ""_0n^1`.
If the binding energies of `""_1H^1, ""_1H^3 " and " ""_2He^4` are a, b and c respectively (in MeV), then the energy released in this reaction is

Options

A. (a+b)-c
B. c-(a+b)
C. a+b+c
D. c+a-b

Answer

B

Explanation

This is a fiusion reaction, hence the energy of the product nuclei is always more that the sum of the energies of the fusing particles or cgta+b
`therefore` Energy released in the reaction = c-(a+b)
