Which of the hydrogen or deuterium undergoes reactions more rapidly and why ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Hydrogen undergoes reaction more rapidly than deuterium. This is because of mass differences. For example, reaction between hydrogen and chlorine is about 14 times faster than between deuterium and chlorine.
