An isotopic species of lithium hydride L...

An isotopic species of lithium hydride LiH is a potential fuel in a reactor on the basis of reaction `._(3)^(6)Li+._(1)^(2)H rarr 2._(2)^(4)He`. Find the possible power production in kW assciated with the consumption of 1g of `.^(6)Li^(2)H` per day, if the efficiency of the process is `100 %`.
`[M(._(3)^(6)Li) = 6.01702 am u, M(._(1)^(2)H) = 2.01474 am u, M(._(2)^(4)He) = 4.00388 am u]`
