Explanation:

  • Heavy Water is used for the preparation of Deuterium.
  • As a tracer to study the mechanism of respiration, photosynthesis.
  • D2O is used in NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance) spectroscopy, which is used to observe the magnetic fields around the nuclei of atoms.
  • Isotopologues of many organic compounds are prepared with the help of deuterium oxide.
  • Heavy water is often used instead of normal water in IR (infrared) spectroscopy.
  • As a moderator in the nuclear reactor to slow down the neutrons. Since it can slow down the fast-moving neutrons so that they can react with the 235U isotope instead of the 238U isotope.
  • The metabolic rate in humans and animals is tested with the help of a mixture of D2O and heavy-oxygen water.
  • Tritium, the active substance used in controlled nuclear fusion reactions, is formed when the deuterium present in heavy water captures a neutron
