Is heavy water conductive?
Heavy water, also known as deuterium oxide, is slightly conductive due to the presence of deuterium atoms that have a partial positive charge. However, its conductivity is much lower than that of regular water due to the lower abundance of free ions. Heavy water is still considered a poor conductor compared to other electrolytes.
Why is heavy water heavier than regular water?
Because heavy water is D2O and not H2O; the hydrogen atomic nucleus has only one proton, the deuterium has one proton and one neutron. Consequently the properties of the two isotopes are very different. The deuterated water is more dense than the normal water (1,1056 g/cm3 for D2O and 0,9982 g/cm3 for H2O.
How much regular water does it take to make 2oz of Heavy water?
To make 2 oz of heavy water, typically 556 oz of regular water is required. This is because heavy water, which contains deuterium instead of regular hydrogen, is produced through a process called isotopic exchange.
What is heavey water?
There are two types of heavy water. The first is where the hydrogen atom is replaced by the Deuterium atom, which contains a neutron. (Thus the atom for practical purposes) is twice as heavy. There is another similar form of hydrogen atom which contains two neutrons, and consequently weighs three times as much as the ordinary Hydrogen. Tritium has a half life of just over 12 years. Deuterium is stable. If either of these hydrogen isotopes is used to make water, the water is heavier than usual. Commonly differentiated as 'Deuterated water' and Tritiated water' [There is actually a third variety of heavy water in which 18O is used instead of 16O. This variety is 3H2 18O. Used in the production of positrons for medical use.]
Why do you see so little deuterium today?
When the Earth first formed, there was an abundant amount of deuterium in the atmosphere. Today, most of the deuterium has fused into helium and because of that, there is little deuterium left.

What was heavy water?
Heavy water is water with the chemical formula of D2O or deuterium oxide. This water is composed of the hydrogen isotope deuterium, which is heavier and less stable than hydrogen. It has quite similar physical and chemical properties to those of H2O. The dielectric constant of D2O is lower than that of H2O and rate of reactions are much slower than H2O. It is used as a moderator in nuclear reactions, as trace compound for studying a reaction mechanism, for the preparation of deuterium.

how much should i approximintly drink water?
Around 8 cups of water per day
How much water can be pumped into a human until they die?
monthly one litter
How much would a mole of deuterium atoms weigh?
A mole of deuterium atoms would weigh approximately 2 grams. This is because the atomic mass of deuterium is around 2 grams per mole.

How much energy did ultra dense deuterium give off when it unzips it one billion joules per kilogram?
Deuterium is an isotope of hydrogen. It isn't clear what you mean by "ultra-dense deuterium". In theory, deuterium can release huge amounts of energy, via nuclear fusion.

How Heavy Water is made?
You cant make heavy water in a normal home or lab you need to have very specilized equpiment for example huge electromagnets nuetron guns which is probably worth over $100,000 , take the easy option and buy it froma chemical supplier for example Sigma Aldrich Multiple stage cascade electrolytic isotope enrichment. However the electricity cost to power the cascade will be much higher than the cost of equipment, unless you build right next to a very large hydroelectric plant and convince them to sell electricity to you at well below wholesale. No electromagnets or neutron guns required.
