As Deuterium and Tritium are both merely isotopes of Hydrogen and not elements in their own right, they both have an atomic number of 1, just like Hydrogen (Hydrogen-1).
Deuterium (Hydrogen-2) has an Atomic Mass of 2, and Tritium (Hydrogen-3) has an atomic mass of 3.

How cant you tell isotopes of the same element apart?
You can tell isotopes apart by the difference in there atomic mass numbers. Take for example the isotope Carbon-12. Carbon is the element name and 12 is the atomic mass of the element. The atomic mass number can (most?) always be changed, but the the atomic number ( the number above the Element symbol on the Periodic Table) cannot. Remember: The number of protons add by the number of neutrons equals the atomic mass number. The proton number = the atomic number, as of the number of electrons= the atomic number; hence the atomic number= number of proton = number of electron.
What is the difference between H2 and H1 isotopes?
They have different numbers of neutrons and therefore different atomic masses. Hydrogen-2, with 1 protons and 1 neutron has an atomic mass of 2. Hydrogen-1, with 1 proton and no neutrons has an atomic mass of 1. (By the way, the accepted way of writing these symbolically if you can't use subscripts is to put the number first, vis: 2H)
What is the most common ion that hydrogen forms?
[Kluged from Wikipedia and others] Hydrogen (H) (Standard atomic mass: 1.00794(7) has three naturally occurring isotopes: Protium 1H, Deuterium 2H, and Tritium 3H. Other, highly unstable nuclei (4H to 7H) have been synthesized in the laboratory but not observed in nature.
What is relative atomic number?
The relative atomic mass is defined as: "The weighted mean of the relative isotopic masses of an element on the scale where 12C is 12 amu exactly; symbol Ar." (Heinemann Chemistry 1, 4th Edition).An atomic mass is always near to the number of Protons and Neutrons within an atom. (12C has a relative atomic mass of exactly 12 amu, but 13C has a relative atomic mass of 13.003 amu for example). Isotopes are Atoms with the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons. Isotopes used in the calculation of relative atomic mass are naturally formed. The percentage of each type of isotope within a sample of an element is calculated (one way is by using a mass spectrometer). The values are then used to calculate the relative atomic mass.Example: Calculating hydrogen's relative atomic mass Hydrogen has 3 common isotopes that are naturally formed. 1H (protium), 2H (deuterium), and 3H (tritium). The atomic masses and the percentage of each of these found in a sample is found to be: Atomic Mass % in sample (values may not be exact)1H 1.008 amu 99.986%2H 2.014 amu 0.014%3H 3.016 amu 0.0001%These are then used to calculate the relative atomic mass as follows ((1.008 amu * 99.986%) + (2.014 amu * 0.014%) + (3.016 amu * 0.0001%)) / 100% Which equals approximately 1.008143856 amu.
How do the isotopes deuterium and tritium different?
All hydrogen atoms of any kind have one proton in the nucleus. The number of neutrons differ for the 3 isotopes.Regular hydrogen has no neutrons in the nucleus (1H), deuterium has one neutron (2H), and tritium has two neutrons (3H).
How many neutrons are in an atom of deuterium 2H?
Deuterium, 2H has one neutron.
Is H2 is it same as deuterium?
Having only one proton deuterium has the atomic number 1, as hydrogen; but because deuterium has also and a neutron, the atom is different compared to the atom of hydrogen. Consequently deuterium is an isotope of hydrogen with the Atomic Mass 2.
What is the name given to 2H?
deuterium

What are three isotopes of H?
The main difference between the three isotopes of Hydrogen are the number of neutrons in the nucleus. Hydrogen has no neutrons, Deuterium has one neutron and Tritium has two neutrons. All three have one proton and one electrons.
Which symbol represents isotope of the symbol D?
D is deuterium, or 2H. An isotope of hydrogen with a neutron in addition to the proton.
What is the isotope of hydrogen?
Protium (1H), Deuterium (2H), and tritium (3H)are the three isotopes of hydrogen.
What is the difference between H2 and H1 isotopes?
They have different numbers of neutrons and therefore different atomic masses. Hydrogen-2, with 1 protons and 1 neutron has an atomic mass of 2.

Calculate the energy required to remove one proton and one neutron from Helium 4?
Calculate the rest energy of the alpha particle and the products using E=mc^2, then take the difference (initial - final) between the initial and final states. If your final proton and neutron are independent, use the individual proton and neutron mass in your calculation. If they come off as a deuterium, use the mass of deuterium in the calculation. So you get E(4He) - E(2H) -E(mp) - E(mn) in the former case, and E(4HE) - 2E(2H) in the latter case.
A number written to the left of a chemical symbol or formula is called?
In chemical symbol, number written on top-left (2H) is is the mass number, and on the bottom left (1H) is atomic number. In chemical symbol the number in the very left of formula is used for balancing chemical equation.
