The compound used as a moderator in nuclear reactors is
- A \(\mathrm{BeD}_2\)
- B \(\mathrm{D}_2 \mathrm{O}_2\)
- C \(\mathrm{D}_2 \mathrm{O}\)
- D \(\mathrm{NaD}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(\mathrm{D}_2 \mathrm{O}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
A moderator is a material used in nuclear reactor to slow down neutrons produced from fission. Heavy water \(\left(\mathrm{D}_2 \mathrm{O}\right)\) is used as moderator in nuclear reactor because, it slows down neutron effectively and also has low probability of absorption of…
