When a deuteron of mass 2.0141 a.m.u and negligible K.E. is absorbed by a Lithium `(._(3)Li^(6))` nucleus of mass 6.0155 a.m.u. the compound nucleus disintegration spontaneously into two alpha particles, each of mass 4.0026 a.m.u. Calculate the energy carried by each `alpha` particle.

Explanation

To solve the problem, we will follow these steps:

### Step 1: Calculate the Initial Mass
The initial mass is the sum of the masses of the deuteron and the lithium nucleus.

\[ \text{Initial Mass} = \text{Mass of Deuteron} + \text{Mass of Lithium} \]
