The fusion reaction

^2_1\mathrm D + ^2_1\mathrm D \rightarrow ^3_2\mathrm{He} + n

uses the following atomic masses:

^2_1\mathrm D = 2.014102\,\text{u}

^3_2\mathrm{He} = 3.016029\,\text{u}

n = 1.008665\,\text{u}

. Calculate the energy released per fusion event. (Take

1\,\text{u} = 931\,\text{MeV}/c^{2}
