Dihydrogen reacts with dioxygen (O(2)) ...

Dihydrogen reacts with dioxygen `(O_(2))` to from water .Write the name and formule of the product when the isotope of hydrogen which has one proton and one neutron in its nucles is treated with oxygen. Will the reactivity of both the isotopes be the same towards oxygen ? Justify your answer.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The isotope of hydrogen containing one proton and one neutron is deuterium (D).
`2D_2(g) + O_2 (g) to underset("Deuterium oxide")(2D_2 O)`
Since D-D bond is stronger than H-H bond, therefore, `D_2` is less reactive towards oxygen than `H_2`.
