What is the coolant used in kalpakkam power station in India?
Kalpakkam has both Thermal reactor (Madras Atomic Power Station) and Fast Breeder Reactor -FBTR and PFBR (Under construction). In MAPS (thermal reactor) it is Heavy Water (D2O) Which acts as a coolant as well as moderator, where as in Fast Breeder Test Reactor (FBTR) and Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor (PFBR) Sodium (Na) is used as coolant. Since there should not any moderators for fast reactors D2O will not be used as coolant in fast reactors.

In contrast, the Chernobyl disaster in 1986 was a full-scale meltdown caused by a flawed reactor design and operator errors, resulting in immediate deaths, widespread radioactive contamination, and long-term health and environmental consequences.

How many reactors have exploded at the Fukushima Daiishi nuclear power plant?
I think four of the six on site, but they have not all had the same problems. The explosions were actually in the reactor buildings, not inside the reactor pressure vessels, and these explosions were due to hydrogen accumulating and forming an explosive mixture with air
