The hydrogen isotope consists one “neutron” and one “proton” called Deuterium. The Deuterium reacts with dioxygen to form deuterium oxide.
Deuterium oxide is called “heavy water” and the reaction is as follows.
The reactivity of and is different towards oxygen because H-H bond weaker than D-D bond.
Therefore, is more reactive than towards reaction with oxygen.
