The binding energies per nucleon for a deuteron and an `alpha`-particle are `x_(1)` and `x_(2)` respectively. What will be the energy Q released in the following reaction?
`""_(1)H^(2) + ""_(1)H^(2) to ""_(2)He^(4) + Q`

A

`4(x_(1) + x_(2))`

B

`4(x_(2)- x_(1))`

C

`2(x_(1) + x_(2))`

D

`2(x_(2)- x_(1))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`Q= 4x_(2)- 2 xx 2x_(1)= 4 (x_(2)-x_(1))`
