Question
It is believed that two carbon-12 nuclei can react in the core of a supergiant star to form sodium-23
and hydrogen-1. Calculate the energy released from this reaction for each mole of hydrogen formed.
2C+C ⇒ Na + H
11
Particle Mass (amu)
C-12.
12.000000
Na-23 22.989767
H-1
1.007825
(1 kg = 6.022 x 1026 amu;
NA = 6.022 x 1023 mol-1,
C = 2.99792458 × 108 m/s)
