Question: Is hydrogen positive or negative?...
Is hydrogen positive or negative?
Solution
In the universe, there are many elements found and hydrogen is most found, and the total mass of hydrogen is 70%. Dihydrogen is the molecular formula of hydrogen because it is a stable form and is found in nature like it. In the solar system, it is the fundamental element.
Complete answer: - Hydrogen is a positively charged ion. The first element in the periodic table is hydrogen because the number of the electron in hydrogen is 1. There are many groups in the periodic table, in which alkali metals and halogens are also groups, and hydrogen has similarities with both groups. The metallic form of hydrogen is also found in recent experiments and research by scientists.
- It has one electron in its outermost shell, like other alkali metals, and forms monovalent ions, but in terms of ionization energy, it resembles halogens.
- The large planets such as Jupiter and Saturn are composed of hydrogen and halogen mainly helium.
- 15.4% of combined constituents of hydrogen are found in the earth's crust and in the oceans.
- Hydrogen bonding is the formation of hydrogen bonds, which are attractive intermolecular forces. It is found that these arise due to the dipole–dipole interaction between hydrogen atoms which is bonded to a highly electronegative atom.
Note: There are three isotopes of hydrogen; namely: Protium, Deuterium, and Tritium. Since all the isotopes have the same number of electrons, therefore, the electronic configuration is also the same. That’s why they show almost the same chemical properties, but they differ largely in their physical properties due to their mass numbers. Protium is the most common isotope of hydrogen from all the isotopes which is abundantly found in nature.
