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.
Water - There are three known Hydrogen variants of water. To understand this you have to realize that there are Three kinds of hydrogen: Hydrogen, Deuterium and Tritium. Each of these behave almost exactly like Hydrogen. They differ only on the nuclear level. Deuterium is heavier than Hydrogen and Tritium is heavier than Deuterium. Normal or common water (H2O)is composed of one Oxygen atom and two Hydrogen atoms. This is what you call hydrogen water. Heavy water or Deuterium Oxide (D2O) is the second of the three variants. Super heavy water, Tritiated water or Tritium Oxide (T20) is the third variant. It is radioactive and is incredibly rare. Natural drinking water is primarily Hydrogen based with a very small concentration of Deuterium based water.
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.
Hydrogen-2 is commonly referred to as deuterium, in addition to that it is known as Deuterium-1
Deuterium Oxide. Heavy water is water formed using higher proportions of deuterium and tritium, unstable and heavier isotopes of hydrogen, for ease of storage of those particles before use in nuclear reactions.it is water
deuterium oxide, with traces of deuterium hydrogen oxide, and ordinary water.
Deuterium oxide: 2H2O Uses deuterium, a heavier isotope of hydrogen.

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)
D-O-D, where "D" represents an atom of hydrogen-2 (deuterium). The shape is slightly bent, as in normal water.
hydrogen (protium to be more specific) and deuterium. There is also a third isotope of hydrogen which is called tritium.
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.
