Abstract: We study the deuteron electrodisintegration with inclusion of the neutral currents focusing on the helicity asymmetry of the exclusive cross section in coplanar geometry $\mathcal{A}({\ensuremath{\vartheta}}_{\mathrm{c}.\mathrm{m}.})$. We stress that a measurement of $\mathcal{A}({\ensuremath{\vartheta}}_{\mathrm{c}.\mathrm{m}.})$ in the quasielastic region is of interest for an experimental determination of the weak form factors of the nucleon, allowing one to obtain the parity-violating electron neutron asymmetry. Numerically, we consider the reaction at low-momentum transfer and discuss the sensitivity of $\mathcal{A}({\ensuremath{\vartheta}}_{\mathrm{c}.\mathrm{m}.})$ to the strangeness radius and magnetic moment. The problems coming from the finite angular acceptance of the spectrometers are also considered.
