yes:
Both are isotopes of hydrogen, and as such their chemical properties, as well as most of their physical ones, can be found in the entry for hydrogen and in most other sources of information concerning the element. See the related links for more details on both.
The compound formed by hydrogen and deuterium is called heavy water (D₂O). Tritium can form a compound with hydrogen to create tritiated water (T₂O).
No, deuterium and tritium do not participate in the formation of hydrogen chloride gas. Hydrogen chloride gas is formed when hydrogen and chlorine elements react together. Deuterium and tritium are isotopes of hydrogen and do not play a role in this specific chemical reaction.
The most common isotope of hydrogen is protium, which has one proton and no neutrons in its nucleus. Other isotopes of hydrogen include deuterium, which has one proton and one neutron, and tritium, which has one proton and two neutrons.
No, a hydrogen atom with a mass of 3 is not an isotope of hydrogen. Hydrogen isotopes include protium (mass 1), deuterium (mass 2), and tritium (mass 3).
Hydrogen isotopes differ by the number of neutrons they contain. Protium, the most common isotope, has no neutrons. Deuterium, another isotope, contains one neutron. Tritium, the third hydrogen isotope, contains two neutrons.
Deuterium is an isotope of hydrogen that contains one proton and one neutron in its nucleus. It also has one electron orbiting the nucleus.
