Select the property which have higher value for $H_{2} O$ when compared to $D_{2} O$ .

Options:

Answer:

Solution:

The dielectric constant of H₂O is higher than that of D₂O. This is primarily due to the higher zero-point energy and vibrational frequency of H₂O, leading to a slightly greater molecular dipole moment and ease of orientation in an electric field.

Dielectric constant:

H₂O: $\approx 80$ at 25 °C

D₂O: $\approx 78$ at 25 °C
