Water that contains hydrogen-2 instead of hydrogen-1 is called heavy water.


How is hydrogen and heavy water different from hydrogen and normal water?

Heavy water contains deuterium, a stable isotope of hydrogen with an extra neutron in its nucleus, while normal water contains protium, the most common isotope of hydrogen. This difference in isotopes leads to variations in physical and chemical properties, such as the higher boiling and freezing points of heavy water compared to normal water.

The difference between a sample of heavy water and regular water is that a hydrogen atom in heavy water has an extra?

The difference is that a hydrogen atom in heavy water, or deuterium oxide, contains an extra neutron in its nucleus compared to a hydrogen atom in regular water. This extra neutron increases the atomic mass of the heavy water molecule compared to regular water.

What is an alternative form of hydrogen found in heavy water?

Heavy water, D2O contain deuterium in lieu of hydrogen. Deuterium,D is a natural isotope of hydrogen with 1 proton and 1 neutron; hydrogen,H has only 1 proton.


Is heavy water radioactive?

No, heavy water is not radioactive. It is a form of water where the hydrogen atoms are replaced with deuterium, a stable isotope of hydrogen. Heavy water is commonly used in nuclear reactors as a neutron moderator.


Which hydrogen is normal and which hydrogen is heavy?

Normal hydrogen has one proton and no neutrons in its nucleus, so it has a mass of one. Heavy hydrogen often called deuterium has one proton and one neutron, so it has a mass of two instead of one. There is also tritium which has one proton and two neutrons, so a mass of three.


How is hydrogen in heavy water different from hydrogen in normal water?

Type your answer here... The hydrogen atoms in heavy water have a neutron in the nucleus, doubling the mass.
