1.	An isotope of hydrogen (A) reacts with diatomic molecule of element which occupies group number 16 and period number 2 to give compound (B) is used as a modulator in nuclear reaction. (A) adds on to a compound (C ), which has the molecular formula C_(3)H_(6) to give (D) Identify A,B,C and D.
Answer» Solution :An isotope of hydrogen Deuterium (A) reacts with diatomic molecule of element belongs to group number 16 and PERIOD number 2 oxygen `O_(2)` to give a compound (B) which is heavy WATER `D_(2)O.D_(2)O` is used period as molerator in nuclear reaction. `underset("Deuterium (A)")(2D_(2)+)O_(2)tounderset("Heavy water (B)")(2D_(2)O)` (ii) Deuterium reacts with `C_(3)H_(6)` PROPANE (C) to give DEUTERO propane `C_(2)D_(6)(D)`. `3D_(2)_underset("Propane")(C_(3)H_(6))tounderset("Deutero propane")(C_(3)D_(6)+3H_(2))` `{:(A,"Deuterium",D_(2)),(B,"Heavy water",D_(2)O),(C,"Propane",C_(3)H_(6)),(D,"Deutero propane",C_(3)D_(6)):}`
