Deuteriums emision spectrum either is like hydrogen http://chemed.chem.purdue.edu/genchem/topicreview/bp/ch6/bohr.html or like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Deuterium_lamp_1.png

An atom of deuterium has one neutron. Deuterium is an isotope of hydrogen with one proton and one neutron in its nucleus.
Deuterium is an isotope of hydrogen, it has twice the mass of a hydrogen atom. A hydrogen atom's mass number is 1 so a deuterium atom would have a mass number of 2
Deuterium nuclei contain one proton and one neutron each and therefore have a mass number of 1 + 1 or 2.
Yes, a hydrogen atom can have one or more neutrons, but when it has more than one neutron, it is considered an isotope of hydrogen called deuterium or tritium. Deuterium has one neutron, tritium has two neutrons, and they are both heavier than the typical hydrogen atom.
Deuterium is a stable isotope of hydrogen with one proton and one neutron, while tritium is a radioactive isotope of hydrogen with one proton and two neutrons. Deuterium is commonly used in heavy water reactors, while tritium is used in nuclear weapons and experimental fusion reactors.
The first atom that doesn't have any neutrons is hydrogen-1, which consists of a single proton in its nucleus and no neutrons.
A stable atom of Zinc (Zn) typically has 34 neutrons.
The atomic weight minus the number of protons = the atom's neutrons.
