3. Complete and balance the equations for the following nuclear reaction by replacing
the question mark with the correct symbol:
a)
b)
c)
d)
a)
b)
c)
Compute the energy released in this reaction, if the relevant rest masses are
neutron, 1.00866 u; boron-10, 10.01294 u; lithium-7, 7.01600 u; helium-4,
4.00260 u.
(2.79 MeV)
The net result of these reactions is that four protons are combined to produce
an particle , two positrons , two -ray photons, and two neutrinos (v).
Find the Q value of the cycle. The rest mass of atomic helium is 4.002603 u.
(24.69 MeV)
8. The following fusion reaction takes place in the sun and furnishes much of its
energy:
