13.000 ITER (International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor, tokamak-type magnetic confinement fusion reactor being built near Cadarache, southern France) will run on a mixture of deuterium and tritium employing D+T → X+n reaction. Identify the nuclide X in this reaction: provide the mass number the element number (atomic number) and the chemical symbol Given the masses of isotopes D and T as 2.014102 u and 3.016029 u respectively, and the total mass of the reaction products as 5.011268 u, calculate how much energy is produced (or absorbed) by the above nuclear reaction? J= MeV (write a minus sign if energy is absorbed). Is this exothermic or endothermic reaction? How much deuterium is needed to maintain planned 800 MW of power over one cycle of operation which will last about 5 min? kg = g How much deuterium is needed to continuously operate the reactor over one day (24 h)? kg = tons. Ordinary tap water contains about 0.00316% of deuterium (by mass). How much tap water is needed to fuel ITER over one day? g= kg tons. =
