  1. Chemical composition of heavy water is :
    1. H2 O2
    2. H2O
    3. HDO
    4. D2O
Correct Option: D

The chemical composition of Heavy water (deuterium oxide) is 2H2O or D2O. It is a form of water that contains a larger than normal amount of the hydrogen isotope deuterium (2H or D, also known as heavy hydrogen), rather than the common hydrogen-1 isotope (1H or H, also called protium) that makes up most of the hydrogen in regular water.
