Given information
We have to find the amount of deuterium fuel required to power a house which requires 960 W for 1 year.
Eq. 31–8b is 
Step-by-step explanation
Step 1.
Eq. 31–8b is given below;
This equation shows that consumes 2 deuterons and releases 3.23 MeV of energy. The amount of energy needed is the power times the elapsed time, and the energy can be related to the mass of deuterium by the reaction.
