The element Hydrogen (H) comes in two other isotopes - Deuterium (D) with another neutron, and radioactive Tritium (T) with yet another. This means the molecules of hydrogen can be H2, HD, HT, D2, DT, T2 and the oxides of hydrogen can be H2O, HDO, HTO, D2O, DTO and T2O as well as the peroxides H2O2, HDO2, HTO2, D2O2, DTO2 and T2O2. None of these could be called deuterium oxide (DO). You could call HDO (or D(OH)) deuterium hydroxide or DO- deutroxide (like HO- is hydroxide)

What elements are in deuterium?
Deuterium is an isotope of hydrogen.
Is deuterium fluoride an acid or a base?
Deuterium flouride is an acid
How many electrons are there in hydrogen deuterium?
Two.
What is the name for the compound Cu2O?
Copper (I) Oxide or Cuprous Oxide
Is oxide a fuel?
oxide is not. But nitrous oxide is!
What does heavy water contain?
deuterium oxide, with traces of deuterium hydrogen oxide, and ordinary water.
What is knows as heavy water?
Deuterium oxide: 2H2O Uses deuterium, a heavier isotope of hydrogen.
What has the author Evan Carter Noonan written?
Evan Carter Noonan has written: 'Thermodynamics of strong electrolytes in protium-deuterium oxide mixtures' -- subject(s): Hydrochloric acid, Protium oxide, Deuterium oxide, Electrolytes
What element name does water have?
Water is not an element, it is a compound and contains hydrogen and oxygen which are elements. Water has scientific names: dihydrogen oxide, deuterium oxide (horsey water) and ditritium oxide (radioactive water)
Why is boiling point of deuterium oxide different from water?
Standard water (hydrogen oxide) is H2O. We get deuterium oxide by changing the two hydrogen atoms to deuterium atoms. These are hydrogen atoms with an extra particle, a neutron. Since hydrogen comprises 1 proton, deuterium being 1 proton plus 1 neutron is roughly twice as heavy. This is significant on a chemical behavior scale. It is an exception to the rule that changes in nuclear weight do not affect chemistry.
What does the element DO stand for?
There is no ELEMENT with the symbol "DO" however, it would be the molecule which is one atom of deuterium (D) and one atom of oxygen (O). Deuterium is an isotope of hydrogen. This molecule would be called deuterium oxide.
Reaction between magnesium nitride and deuterium oxide?
It produces Ammonia and Magnesium Deuteroxide
What is a liquid that begins with the letter d?
Deuterium Oxide. A more simple answer would be Dew
What is the structural formula for deuterium oxide?
D-O-D, where "D" represents an atom of hydrogen-2 (deuterium). The shape is slightly bent, as in normal water.
What has the author Elgene Arthur Smith written?
Elgene Arthur Smith has written: 'The interaction of hydrogen and deuterium on zinc oxide' -- subject(s): \Reprinted from the Journal of the American chemical society, 60 ... (1938).\, Deuterium, Hydrogen, Zinc oxide
What is the word formula for DO2?
It would be deuterium (deuterium is an isotope of hydrogen) dioxide, though no such compound exists. However, D2O, often called deuterium oxide or heavy water, does exist.
What does water elements have?
Water is not an element, it is a compound and contains hydrogen and oxygen which are elements. Water has scientific names: dihydrogen oxide, deuterium oxide (horsey water) and ditritium oxide (radioactive water)
