Question
Assuming that about 20 MeV of energy is released per fusion reaction, 1H2 + 1H3 → 0n1 + 2He4, the mass of 1H2 consumed per day in a future fusion reactor of power 1 MW would be approximately
Options
A.0.1 gm
B.0.01 gm
C.1 gm
D.10 gm
Solution
(A) no of moles of 1H2 consumed
=
= 0.05
∴ m = 0.1 g
=
= 0.05
∴ m = 0.1 g
