Mar 29, 2023 at 12:03 | comment | added | Poutnik | @CHEMUMAN Yes, I do. There is nowhere said methane is a compound of carbon-12 and hydrogen-1. Molecules differing just by isotopic composition are called Isotopologues // Hydrogen is exception just formally, having dedicated symbols for its isotopes, as they have relatively biggest differences due the biggest relative mass differences. So H, D, T as hydrogen-1, hydrogen-2 and hydrogen-3 formally look like 3 different elements, while being just one. | |
Mar 29, 2023 at 11:17 | comment | added | CHEMUMAN | @Poutnik What do you mean is that $\ce{CH_4}$ is actually a mixture of various compounds of isotopes of carbon & isotopes of hydrogen(e.g.: $\ce{^14_6C _1^3H_4}$ is also methane), isn't it? | |
Mar 29, 2023 at 10:57 | comment | added | Poutnik | @CHEMUMAN Is $\ce{H2^{18}O}$ water? Yes, it is. $\ce{CD4}$ is nothing else but $\ce{C^{2}H4}$. Do not let convention $\ce{^{2}H}$ being written as $\ce{D}$ confuse you. H in CH4 means hydrogen, not protium. | |
