Physics · JEE Main · NTA ExamsAtoms and Nuclei

The binding energy per nucleon of deuteron \(\left[1 \mathrm{H}^{2}\right]\) and helium atom \(\left(2 \mathrm{He}^{4}\right)\) is 1.1 MeV and 7 MeV respectively. If two deuteron atoms react to form a single helium atom, the released energy, is
  1. 13.9 MeV
  2. 26.9 MeV
  3. 23.6 MeV
  4. 19.2 MeV

Answer

(C) 23.6 MeV
