Question

Problem:

Let us calculate Q value of the reaction ²⁷Al (d, α) ²⁵Mg

Answer:

Given that masses of

²⁷Al = 26.981541        ²H        = 2.014102

⁴He = 4.002603          ²⁵Mg    = 24.985839

Sum of masses of Reactants           = 26.981541 + 2.014102

= 28.995643 amu

Sum of masses of Products            = 24.985839 + 4.002603

= 28.988442 amu

.^..       Q = (28.995643 - 28.988442) × 931.5

= 6.701 MeV
