Harold Clayton Urey (1893-1981) discovered the heavy hydrogen isotopes in the 1930s. In 1931 he demonstrated the existence of the hydrogen isotope of atomic weight two, one with weight three was supposed but not yet revealed. For his discovery of heavy hydrogen Urey was awarded the Nobel prize of chemistry in 1934.
The discovery of H2 (Deuterium) was announced by Harold C. Urey, F.G. Brickwedde, and G. M. Murphy in the Physical Review of 1 January 1932. A more comprehensive article appeared in the April issue of that journal. They did not give a name to the newly discovered isotope, not for the isotope H3 which they predicted.
Harold Clayton Urey, an American Chemist, discovered heavy water in 1931. He was awarded Nobel Prize for chemistry in 1934 for this work.

Since heavy water contains an isotope of hydrogen 2H or more commonly called Deuterium means that the hydrogen atom in heavy water will have an extra neutron in the nucleus.
My theory to why heavy atoms are not appreciably larger than the hydrogen atom is supposedly because that gases can expand and so that hydrogen is a gas, it is larger though if hydrogen were compressed, it should grow appreciably smaller than heavy atoms. Also to make that test fair you would have to make the heavy atom at its gas state so that then you could see the true, fair differ in size between a hydrogen and heavy atom.

Normal water is made of H2O. That is: two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. Heavy water is made of 2H2O (also known as D2O). That is: one deuterium atom and one oxygen atom. Deuterium is a variation of hydrogen which has a neutron in its nucleus (normal hydrogen has no neutrons). Do not confuse heavy water with H2O2, which is simply hydrogen peroxide.
Heavy water is water whose atomic structure consists of oxygen and heavy hydrogen. Heavy hydrogen, or deuterium, is hydrogen with neutrons in its nuclei.

Water that contains hydrogen-2 instead of hydrogen-1 is called heavy water.

Type your answer here... The hydrogen atoms in heavy water have a neutron in the nucleus, doubling the mass.
Hydrogen has a mean weight of 1.00794 u and was discovered in 1766
Compared to Osmium it is light, compared to Hydrogen it is heavy
H.Cavendish was the discoverered of hydrogen.
