How do you show the amount of heat released on formation of one mole of helium atoms and one mole of neutrons from two moles of deuterium atoms equals 3.14x108 using the equation Emc2?

In nuclear reactor heavy water is used as?
Heavy water (deuterium) functions as a moderator. It slows down fast neutrons released by fission reactions in order to allow the reaction to be sustained. Fast neutrons pass through the reactor before initiating another fission reaction.
What happens to hydrogen at very high temperatures?
They are fused into helium and create energy. But it takes 4 hydrogen atoms to make 1 atom of helium. The Hydrogen is first converted to Deuterium (heavy hydrogen), and the two deuterium atoms fuse to make the Helium atom. This process releases a lot of energy, not the least because of the neutrons released. Lol
Is energy required or released in the formation of negative ions?
ergy is released in the formation of negative ion
What is the word equation of the nuclear reaction in the suns core?
Four protons are fused together to four one helium nucleus The differential strong atomic force is released as energy and gamma radiation. Two of the protons are converted into neutrons, releasing positrons and electron neutrinos.
Does energy always released during ionization?
During the formation of anions (negatigely charged ions) energy is released. During the formation of cations (positively charged ions) energy is absorbed.

What is a nuclear bomb equation?
An atomic bomb works by having a number of neutrons released from the nucleus, and these in turn will dislodge more neutrons from other atoms and so on. Provided the number of neutrons released continues to grow, a nuclear explosion will result. A significant problem is in having enough neutrons released to start the chain reaction going. This will not usually take place with ordinary materials, and the starting material has to be made to release more neutrons than it would do naturally. This is done by compressing the start material, but as you know, trying to compress a solid is difficult. A spherical cage of conventional explosive (shaped charge) is the most common method. Returning to the question, there is no single "equation". If you look up the work of folk like Richard Feynman, and J R Oppenheimer, you'll be better informed.

Who recognised that large energy is released as a result of the fusion of hydrogen nuclei to form deuterium?
The most likely fusion reaction to be exploited is deuterium + tritium forming helium +a neutron, not what you have put in your question. The physics of this was worked out by Hans Bethe
Why deuterium is used in nuclear power plants?
Deuterium is the isotope of hydrogen with a nucleus of one proton and one neutron. It occurs naturally in water to a small concentration. The main use at present is as heavy water, which is deuterium oxide ( equivalent to H2O), which is used as a moderator in heavy water reactors, like the CANDU type. Experiments in nuclear fusion use deuterium as a fuel, along with tritium, which is another hydrogen isotope, and if these experiments are ever successful enough to build a fusion power plant this will become a major use for it. Luckily there is a large amount in all the earth's waters.
What is the difference between an ordinary chemical equation and a nuclear equation?

What else apart from energy is released during nuclear fusion?
If you fuse deuterium (1p, 1n) with tritium (1p, 2n), you get helium (2p, 2n) plus a free neutron, plus the released energy
What is the ratio of the fusion energy1 released per atomic mass unit for the deuterium-tritium reaction to the fission energy2 released per atomic mass unit for uranium-235 reaction?
4.133:1
Does energy always released during ionization?
During the formation of anions (negatigely charged ions) energy is released. During the formation of cations (positively charged ions) energy is absorbed.
What do nuclear fission release?
Large amount of energy and extra neutrons are released
