← ScienceWhich consequence results when isotopic fractionation concentrates deuterium?
A)Decreased tritium production within fusion reactors
B)Higher neutron flux within CANDU reactors
C)Increased coolant viscosity in nuclear plants✓
D)Reduced uranium enrichment process efficiency
💡 Explanation
Increased deuterium concentration raises forces between water molecules, therefore increasing absolute coolant viscosity because isotopic fractionation favors heavier isotopes during phase changes, rather than affecting tritium or general enrichment.
