An attractive fuel for nuclear fusion is deuterium h 1 2


An attractive fuel for nuclear fusion is deuterium H 1 2 which constitutes about .015% of the hydrogen in the oceans.

a) On average, how many deuterium atoms are there in 4 kilograms of ocean water?

b) If each deuterium nucleus produces 7.4 MeV in a fusion reaction, how much energy would be released if each H 1 2 atoms in the 4 grams were fused?
