A tritium nucleus is formed by combining two
neutrons and a proton. The mass of this nucleus
is 9.106 × 10–3 universal mass unit less than the
combined mass of the particles from which it is
formed. Approximately how much energy is
released when this nucleus is formed?

E = m c^2
E=Δm•c²=
=9.106•10⁻³•1.67•10⁻²⁷•(3•10⁸)²=1.37•10⁻¹²J
=9.106•10⁻³•1.67•10⁻²⁷•(3•10⁸)²=1.37•10⁻¹²J
