Physics JAMB 1988

In a certain fusion reaction, a deuteron (\(^{2}_{1}H\)) interacts with a triton (\(^{3}_{1}He\)) and produces an a-particle (\(^{4}_{2}He\)) and a second product. The second product is

  • a proton
  • an electron
  • a neutron checkmark
  • a gamma ray

The correct answer is: C

Explanation

\(^{2}_{1}H\) + \(^{3}_{1}H\) \(\to\) \(^{4}_{2}He\) + \(^{1}_{0}He\)
