Question

Explain Heavy Water (D2O) 's chemical Reactions.​

Answer 1

• Electrolysis: 2O2O → 2O2 (Deuterium)+ O2

• Reactions with Metals: 2Na + 2D2O → 2NaOD(Sodium Deuteroxide) + D2

• Reactions with Non Metals: D2O + Cl2 → DCl + DOCl

• Reactions with Metal Oxide: MgO + D2O → Mg(OD)2

• Reactions with Non-Metal Oxides: SO3 + D2O → D2SO4 (Deutero sulphuric acid)

• Reactions with Magnesium Nitride: Mg3N2 + 6D2O → 3Mg(OD)2 + 2ND3 (Deutero Ammonia)

• Reactions with Calcium Phosphide: Ca3P2+6D2O → 3Ca(OD)2+2PD3 (Deutero Phosphide)

• Reactions with Calcium Carbide: CaC2 + 2D2O → Ca(OD)2 + C2D2 (Deutero Acetylene)

• Reactions with Aluminium Carbide: Al4C3 + 12D2O → 4Al(OD)3 + 3CD4 (Deutero methane)

Answer 2

Answer:

chromatography: Involves solvent separation on a solid medium. distillation: Takes advantage of differences in boiling points. evaporation: Removes a liquid from a solution to leave a solid material. filtration: Separates solids of different sizes.
