_{3}^{7}\textrm{Li}+_{1}^{1}\textrm{H}\rightarrow _{2}^{4}\textrm{He}+_{2}^{4}\textrm{He}+Q

Q value of reaction

=2\times E_{He}-\left [ E_{Li} \right ]

=2\times \left [ 7.06\times4 \right ]-[7\times5.60]\:MeV

=56.48 - 39.20 MeV

= 17.3 MeV 


Option 1)

19.6 MeV

This option is incorrect.

Option 2)

-2.4 MeV

This option is incorrect.

Option 3)

8.4 MeV

This option is incorrect.

Option 4)

17.3 MeV

This option is correct.
