To solve the problem of finding the total energy released when 2 moles of deuterium are fused in the given nuclear fusion reaction, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Reaction The nuclear fusion reaction is: \[ _{1}^{2}H + _{1}^{2}H \rightarrow _{2}^{3}He + _{0}^{1}n + Q \] Here, deuterium (\( _{1}^{2}H \)) fuses to produce helium-3 (\( _{2}^{3}He \)) and a neutron (\( _{0}^{1}n \)), along with the release of energy \( Q \). ### Step 2: Calculate the Change in Mass (\( \Delta M \)) ...

The source of energy of stars is nuclear fusion. Fusion reaction occurs at very high temperature, about 10^(7) . Energy released in the process of fusion is due to mass defect. It is also called Q -value. Q = Delta mc^(2), Delta m = mass defect.

Scientists are working hard to develop nuclear fusion reactor Nuclei of heavy hydrogen, _(1)^(2)H , known as deuteron and denoted by D , can be thought of as a candidate for fusion rector . The D-D reaction is _(1)^(2) H + _(1)^(2) H rarr _(2)^(1) He + n+ energy. In the core of fusion reactor, a gas of heavy hydrogen of _(1)^(2) H is fully ionized into deuteron nuclei and electrons. This collection of _1^2H nuclei and electrons is known as plasma . The nuclei move randomly in the reactor core and occasionally come close enough for nuclear fusion to take place. Usually , the temperature in the reactor core are too high and no material will can be used to confine the to plasma for a time t_(0) before the particles fly away from the core. If n is the density (number volume ) of deuterons , the product nt_(0) is called Lawson number. In one of the criteria , a reactor is termed successful if Lawson number is greater then 5 xx 10^(14) s//cm^(2) it may be helpfull to use the following boltzmann constant lambda = 8.6 xx 10^(-5)eV//k, (e^(2))/(4 pi s_(0)) = 1.44 xx 10^(-9) eVm Result of calculations for four different design of a fusion reactor using D-D reaction are given below. which of these is most promising based on Lawson criterion ?
