"Heavy Water" still has the formula H2O, but the hydrogen in the water has a neutron as well as a proton- much like Helium does. It still has it's one electron however. Heavy water is used in NMR as a solvent for organic chemicals in proton NMR- to avoid interference on the spectra.

Why heavy water more efficient moderator tan ordinary water?
Heavy water (D₂O) is a more efficient neutron moderator than ordinary water (H₂O) because it has a higher mass, which allows it to slow down neutrons more effectively without absorbing them. Heavy water's deuterium nuclei are less likely to capture neutrons compared to the hydrogen nuclei in ordinary water, leading to a higher likelihood of sustaining a nuclear chain reaction. This property makes heavy water particularly valuable in certain types of nuclear reactors, enabling them to use natural uranium as fuel.
