the binding energy per nucleon for a deuteron and an alpha particle is x1 and x2 . the energy released in the reaction H(A=2)+ H(A=2) ---> He(A=4) +Q is
Dear Student,
Total binding energy on the LHS is 4x1 and total binding energy on the RHS is 4x2 .
The difference in energy is 4(x1 - x2).
This energy is released as Q.
