The binding energy per nucleon of deuteron \(\left({ }_{1}^{2} \mathrm{H}\right)\) and helium nucleus \(\left({ }_{2}^{4} \mathrm{He}\right)\) is 1.1 MeV and 7 MeV respectively. If two deuteron nuclei react to form 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
