About Hydrogen

Hydrogen is a colorless, odorless, tasteless, and highly flammable gas. It is the simplest element with just one proton and one electron. Stars like our Sun are primarily powered by hydrogen fusion reactions. On Earth, hydrogen is mostly found combined with oxygen in water.

Gebruiks & Programme

Rocket fuel, petroleum refining, ammonia production, fuel cells, welding, and as a potential clean energy carrier.

Fun Fact

Hydrogen is the only element whose isotopes have individual names: protium, deuterium, and tritium.
