Deuterium section has mildly inaccurate information

Under Properties : Isotopes : 2H : currently reads... "All deuterium in the universe is thought to have been produced at the time of the Big Bang, and has endured since that time." (as of 1418 EST on 12July2023)

I believe it should read: "Nearly all naturally occurring deuterium in the universe..." When people talk about the emissions from nuclear power plants they sometimes mention the isotopes of hydrogen that we generate and release to the public, which can include deuterium.

I generated a talk section instead of editing because I don't know the appropriate formatting. Here's hoping a more senior user can fix it!

Thanks! 216.99.180.228 (talk) 18:24, 12 July 2023 (UTC)

Done. Thanks for your suggestion. Clayoquot (talk | contribs) 01:56, 26 October 2023 (UTC)

Tritium glow

What does tritium glow like in a tube like those shown for hydrogen and deuterium? Is it similar to deuterium? 2603:6000:8740:54B1:98C0:1879:4C99:365D (talk) 21:32, 30 August 2023 (UTC)

Misleading text in paragraph under "combustion"

In this paragraph, it says explosive reactions occur between hydrogen and both air and chlorine but it goes on to say that the combustion can be triggered by a spark, heat or sunlight. This is misleading and wrong to leave it worded like this. Sunlight can only trigger combustion between hydrogen and chlorine. It cannot ignite hydrogen in air. Even a stoichiometric mixture of H2 and O2 (2 to 1) will not ignite from sunlight alone. 99.6.61.222 (talk) 00:40, 23 October 2023 (UTC)

I removed. "The explosive reactions may be triggered by spark, heat, or sunlight.", which was unsourced. Thanks for pointing this out! Clayoquot (talk | contribs) 01:50, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
Thank you! And you're very welcome! 99.6.61.222 (talk) 15:15, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
