The disintegration energy is defined to be the difference in the rest energy between the initial and final states. Consider the following process: $${}_{94}^{240}{\text{Pu}} \to {}_{92}^{236}{\text{U}} + {}_2^4{\text{He}}$$
The emitted α-particle has a kinetic energy 5.17 MeV. The value of the disintegration energy is
