← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when deuterium fuses within a tokamak?
A)Significant energy release as helium forms✓
B)Neutron absorption decreases plasma confinement
C)Increased radiative losses cool the plasma
D)Chloride corrosion damages divertor materials
💡 Explanation
A fusion reaction between deuterium isotopes releases energy as helium-4 forms; therefore, significant thermal occurs, rather than absorption or cooling effects because the reaction's primary product is energy release via kinetic products.
