deuterium


Also called 'heavy hydrogen', deuterium is a non-radioactive isotope of hydrogen having one proton and one neutron in the nucleus (that is, an atomic mass of two). It occurs in nature in the proportion of one atom to 6, 500 atoms of normal hydrogen. (Normal hydrogen atoms contain one proton and no neutrons).
