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

Answer

(C) 23.6 MeV
