Calculate the energy asociated with the following nuclear reaction:
`underset(26.9815 amu)(._(13)^(27)Al) + underset(2.014 amu)(._(1)^(2)H) to underset(24.9858 amu)(._(12)^(25)Mg) + underset(4.0026 amu)(._(2)^(4)He)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Mass defect = (26.9815 + 2.014)
- (24.9858 + 4.0026)
= 0.0072 amu
Energy of the reaction `= 0.0070 xx 931 MeV = 6.70 MeV`
