emission. Write down the

β

- decay equation and detere the maximum kinetic energy of the electrons emitted. Given that:

(i)_{1}^{1} H +_{1}^{3} H \to_{1}^{2} H +_{1}^{2} H Q = [m_{1 H} + m_{1 H}] - [m_{1} + m_{1}_{1}] Q = 1.00758 + 3.016049 - [2.014102 + 2.014102] Q = - 0.0046 u

Since, Q is negative, some mass is converted into energy. Hence, the reaction is endothermic.

(ii)_{6}^{12} C +_{6}^{12} C \to_{10}^{20} Ne +_{2}^{4} He Q = [m_{\frac{1}{6} C} + m_{15 C}] - [m_{11} Ne + m_{\hat{2} He}] Q = 12.000000 + 12.000000 - [19.992439 + 4.00387] Q = 0.00369 u

Since, Q is positive, some mass is converted into energy. Hence, the reaction is exothermic.
