Answer 1

"Nuclear" is a very general term and can refer to many things, too many to go into here. Be more specific, Nuclear ____?

"Heavy Water" refers to water (H2O) which contains heavy Hydrogen isotopes.
Hydrogen normally is made up of a single Proton and a single Electron, this is known as Hydrogen-1 and BY FAR the most common type of Hydrogen in the universe. However, there are other forms of Hydrogen. Hydrogen could also be made out of 1 Proton, 1 Neutron (and of course an electron), making it Hydrogen-2, or could have 2 neutrons, making it Hydrogen-3. The numbers after the Hydrogen indicate the atoms atomic mass, not a subscript.
Heavy water is water which contains heavy Hydrogen atoms (usually Hydrogen-2), so the water has a higher molar mass.
