Well, deuterium is an isotope of hydrogen, meaning it has more neutrons in its nucleus but for the most part identical chemical properties. Molecular hydrogen, or H2, freezes at about 14K, or -434 degrees Fahrenheit (taken from another wiki answer), so molecular deuterium should as well (you won't be able to get the element on its own as in isolation hydrogen forms an ion and repels other hydrogen atoms.)

If you ever were able to get molecular deuterium to be a liquid, which you could only do in a laboratory or the deep reaches of space, and there was light around, you would probably see a clear liquid. Most compounds that are colored are either coordinated metals or big organic compounds, and molecular deuterium is neither. But I've never seen it...

How do you know that a deuterium is a form of hydrogen not a form of helium?

Deuterium has 1 proton, and therefore an isotope of Hydrogen. Remember the number of protons is what changes the atomic number, and what element a atom is. When tritium and deuterium react under immense pressure and heat they form Helium (and omits a neutron) This is the most basic example of nuclear fusion.


What is liquid soap colorant?

Liquid soap colorant is a dye or pigment specifically formulated to be used in liquid soap making to add color. It comes in liquid form and can be easily mixed with the soap base to achieve the desired color for the soap.


What is the fusion of deuterium and hydrogen equation?

The fusion of deuterium (D) and hydrogen (H) involves the fusion of two deuterium nuclei to form a helium-3 nucleus and a neutron. The equation for this reaction is: 2D + 1H → 3He + n + energy.


How do you know Deuterium is made up of hydrogen?

Deuterium is an isotope of hydrogen that has one proton and one neutron in its nucleus, as opposed to the usual hydrogen isotope which only has one proton and no neutrons. This difference in atomic structure is what distinguishes deuterium as a form of hydrogen.


Is deuterium fluoride an acid or a base?

Deuterium fluoride is an acid because it can donate a proton (H+ ion) in a chemical reaction. It is a strong acid that can dissociate completely in water to form hydronium ions and fluoride ions.
