Which outcome reduces the energy released when tritium undergoes nuclear fusion?

💡 Explanation

Increased binding energy of the reactants decreases the energy released, because the excess mass converted to energy is reduced via mass-energy equivalence; therefore, fusion yields less energy to release, rather than other factors affecting reaction kinetics similarly.
