Imagine your car is powered by a fusion engine in which the following reaction occurs: 31H2 ---->2He4 + 1H1 + 0n1 The atomic masses are 1H2 ( 2.0141 u), 2He4 (4.0026 u), 1H1 (1.0078 u), and 0n1 (1.0087 u). The engine uses 4.28 x 10-6 kg of deuterium fuel. If one gallon of gasoline produces 1.37 x 109 J of energy, how many gallons of gasoline would have to be burned to equal the energy released by all the deuterium fuel?
