Etymology

Description

It is a colorless, odorless, gaseous chemical element. It is also the most abundant and lightest element in the universe. It is found in water and all organic compounds. It chemically reacts with many elements. It was discovered by Henry Cavendish in 1776.

Language Of Origin

Greek through Latin and French

Origin Of Word

From the combination of the Greek elements hydro- and -gen, meaning "water maker".

Meaning

water + forming

Symbol Origin

descriptive

Etymological Description

It derives from the French hydrogène and the Latin hydro- and -genes, and from the Greek phrase hydor geinomai, meaning "I make water".

Production & Use

Sources

Commercial quantities are obtained by reacting superheated steam with methane or carbon. It is also possible to obtain it in laboratory studies where metals react with acid solutions or electrolysis.

Uses

Large amounts of hydrogen are used in the production of ammonia. It is also used as fuel in balloons, metal refining, and rockets. Its two heaviest isotopes, deuterium (D) and tritium (T), are used for nuclear fission and fusion, respectively.
