What are the functions of the deuterium and tritium atoms in nuclear reactors?
All current nuclear reactors are fission reactors, tritium has no function in a fission reactor, in standard water moderated reactors deuterium also has no function, in heavy water moderated reactors deuterium is the moderator. If we are ever able to make a fusion reactor, deuterium/tritium mix will be used as fuel.
What nuclei are fused in the nuclear reaction of a hydrogen bomb?
In a hydrogen bomb, hydrogen isotopes such as deuterium (2H) and tritium (3H) are fused together to form helium. The main reaction involves the fusion of deuterium and tritium nuclei to create a helium nucleus, along with a neutron and release of a large amount of energy.
Why deuterium is the heaviest than tritium?
Deuterium is heavier than tritium because deuterium is made up of one proton and one neutron, while tritium has one proton and two neutrons. Tritium is lighter because it contains fewer nucleons than deuterium.
After the deuterium in heavy water is used in fusion what is left in the water?
Heavy water is not used in fusion for any purpose. Pure deuterium gas is used in some boosted fission nuclear bombs, deuterium-tritium gas is used in some boosted fission nuclear bombs and in some experimental fusion reactors. Lithium deuteride is used in fusion nuclear bombs. To obtain the deuterium for these purposes heavy water is usually separated by electrolysis into deuterium gas and oxygen gas. After the extraction of deuterium (or deuterated water) from natural water remain: H2O (molecules with 16O, 17O or 18O) and extremely low concentrations of HTO, T2O.
Difference between deuterium and tritium?
Deuterium is a stable isotope of hydrogen with one proton and one neutron, while tritium is a radioactive isotope of hydrogen with one proton and two neutrons. Deuterium is commonly used in heavy water reactors, while tritium is used in nuclear weapons and experimental fusion reactors.
What are 3 examples of nuclear enegy?
1. Fission of uranium 235. 2. Fission of plutonium 239 . 3. Fusion of deuterium and tritium

Is Duterium heavy than Tririum?
Protium, deuterium, and tritium are all isotopes of hydrogen (H). As far as their masses: Tritium>Deuterium>Protium In their nuclei: Protium has 1 proton and 0 neutrons Deuterium has 1 proton and 1 neutron Tritium has 1 proton and 2 neutrons So yes, Deuterium is heavier than tritium.
Which is heavy either Duterium or Tritium?
Tritium is heavier than deuterium. Tritium consists of one proton and two neutrons, while deuterium consists of one proton and one neutron. Because tritium has an extra neutron, it is heavier than deuterium.
What nuclei are fused in the nuclear reaction of a hydrogen bomb?
In a hydrogen bomb, hydrogen isotopes such as deuterium (2H) and tritium (3H) are fused together to form helium. The main reaction involves the fusion of deuterium and tritium nuclei to create a helium nucleus, along with a neutron and release of a large amount of energy.
Is deuterium radioactive?
No, deuterium is stable. It is Tritium that is radioactive.
Why deuterium is the heaviest than tritium?
Deuterium is heavier than tritium because deuterium is made up of one proton and one neutron, while tritium has one proton and two neutrons. Tritium is lighter because it contains fewer nucleons than deuterium.
Istopes of hydrogen?
deuterium and tritium.
What are deuterium and tritium examle of?
isotopes
What are the differences between tritium and deuterium in terms of their properties and applications?
Tritium and deuterium are isotopes of hydrogen with different numbers of neutrons. Tritium is radioactive and emits low-energy beta particles, while deuterium is stable. Tritium is used in self-luminous devices like exit signs, while deuterium is used in nuclear reactors for fuel and as a tracer in chemical reactions.
