What is the property of heavy water?
"Heavy Water" still has the formula H2O, but the hydrogen in the water has a neutron as well as a proton- much like Helium does. It still has it's one electron however. Heavy water is used in NMR as a solvent for organic chemicals in proton NMR- to avoid interference on the spectra.
Name a charateristic property of water?
It has no taste or smell.
Is there another name for heavy water?
Heavy water has also been called deuterium oxide, D2O.
The ability of some organisms to be able to walk on water is due to which property of water NAME the property?
The property of water allowing some insects and other animals to walk on its surface is called "surface tension".
What is the name of the water that put it in the side of atomic bomb that can drink with no anything happen when you drink it this water?

What specific property name is water evaporating?
The specific property of water evaporating is called evaporation. During this process, water changes from a liquid state to a gaseous state due to heating.

What is the name of the property that allows small insect to walk atop water?

Why heavy water more efficient moderator tan ordinary water?
Heavy water (D₂O) is a more efficient neutron moderator than ordinary water (H₂O) because it has a higher mass, which allows it to slow down neutrons more effectively without absorbing them. Heavy water's deuterium nuclei are less likely to capture neutrons compared to the hydrogen nuclei in ordinary water, leading to a higher likelihood of sustaining a nuclear chain reaction. This property makes heavy water particularly valuable in certain types of nuclear reactors, enabling them to use natural uranium as fuel.
