D2O is a type of water known as heavy water, they use in candu reactors increasing its efficency. im not sure of what the elment "d" is but i do know that oxygene is the o so its basically the same as water h2o only that the mysterious elemnt d replaces the hydrogene

What is same in H2O and D2O?
The chemical properties are the same. The physical properties are not.
What is used as an efficient moderator in a majority of reactors?
Light water (H2O) and heavy water (D2O)
What is the total number of protons an neutrons in an atoms nucleus?
Deuterium (D) is an isotope of hydrogen consisting of 1 neutron and 1 proton. Oxygen (O) has 8 neutrons and 8 protons in its most abundant isotope, 16O (99.7% of all oxygen). Therefore, D2O has 10 neutrons and 10 protons per molecule, 99.7% of the time.
What is the refractive index of sulfuric acid?
According to Sigma-Aldrich, refractive index for Sulfuric acid-d2 solution (95-97 wt. % in D2O, 99 atom % D) is n20/D 1.423. I found it at the address linked.
Why does an NH2 signal not show on a proton NMR?
Depending on the solvent used to dissolve the sample NH2 may or may not show up on h NMR. If it is dissolved in D2O (heavy water) deturium will exchange with the protons attached to heteoatoms and the signal will "dissapear"
What is symbol of heavy water?
The chemical formula of heavy water is D2O.
What is the boiling point of D2O?
D2O is the formula for heavy water.The boiling point of heavy water is 101 degrees Celsius.That would be 213.8 degrees Fahrenheit.
Does deuterium in D2O forms hydrogen bonds?

What is same in H2O and D2O?
The chemical properties are the same. The physical properties are not.
What is heavy water contains?
H2O, DHO, and D2O in some mixture.
What does D2O stand for?
D2O stands for Deuterium Oxide. It is also known as Heavy water. It is widely used as moderators in nuclear reactors. Deuterium is a isotope of Hydrogen, with a neutron along with the lone proton, that is why it is called heavy water.
What is used as an efficient moderator in a majority of reactors?
Light water (H2O) and heavy water (D2O)
Is it possible for two atoms of the same element to have different chemical properties?
Yes. In the case of isotopes of water. An H2O ice cube is shown to float in a beaker of liquid water, while an ice cube of D2O (heavy water) is shown to sink in liquid water.
Is there another name for heavy water?
Heavy water has also been called deuterium oxide, D2O.
What is an unusual compound of water?
For example deuterated water (D2O), tritiated water (T2O) and HDO, HTO, DTO.
Deuterium is in one liter of heavy water?
The percentage of deuterated water (D2O and HDO) in normal water is approx. 0,015 %.
A source of energy loss in a machine?
the sources of energy is heat because h2o+c2o+l2o+a2o+w2o+d2o=soeliam
