Distinguish between nuclear fission and fusion. Show how in both these processes energy is released. Calculate the energy release in MeV in the deuterium-tritium fusion reaction:

2₁H + 3₁H → 4₁He + 0₁n

Using the data:

m(2₁H) = 2.014102 u
m(3₁H) = 3.016049 u
m(4₂He) = 4.002603 u
m_n = 1.008665 u
1 u = 931.5 MeV/c²
