Hydrogen has one electron, which leaves it with a partially full shell. To have a full shell it must have two electrons. As a result, one hydrogen atom will form a covalent bond with another, ad the two atoms share their electrons.

Why does H2 molecules exist when He2 does not?

H2 technically does contain molecules. Or at least, molecule. H2 is two hydrogens covalently bonded, so that the lowest energy level is filled. Since H2 has two atoms (hydrogen and hydrogen), it is not an element, because there is more than one atom. H2 is a molecule itself. However, in context of nature, it is rare that you would ever find an H2 molecule on its own unless you were working with one in a laboratory. So, if you were considering the whole of an H2 gas, there would be many molecules of H2. Short answer: H2 is a molecule itself. Many H2 means there are many molecules of H2.


What is the product of H2?

The product of H2 is hydrogen gas (H2) composed of diatomic molecules.

How many moles of hydrogen gas contained in 9.03x1023?

Given/Known:1mole of H2 = 2.01588g H21mole of H2 = 6.022 x 1023 molecules H21) Convert molecules of H2 to moles of H2 by doing the following calculation.9.4 x 1025 molecules H2 x (1mol H2/6.022 x 1023 molecules H2) = 156mol H22) Convert the moles of H2 to mass in grams of H2.156mol H2 x (2.01588g H2/1mol H2) = 314g H2


What is pH of H2?

The pH of H2 is not applicable because pH is a measure of the acidity or alkalinity of a solution, specifically the concentration of hydrogen ions. H2 is a gas composed of hydrogen molecules and does not form a solution where pH can be measured.

What are two molecules of hydrogen represented by?

Two molecules of hydrogen arte represented by '2H2'. This means H2 & H2 . 'H2' is ONE molecule of hydrogen . It consists of two(2) atoms of hydrogen . It can be represented by 'H-H'. NB With the exception of the Noble Gases , all other gas molecules contain at least two atoms.


Which element is h2?

H2 is the elemental form of hydrogen.


Is hydrogen molecules to hydrogen ions an example of reduction?

Yes, the conversion of hydrogen molecules (H2) to hydrogen ions (H+) represents a reduction process. In this case, hydrogen is gaining an electron to form the hydrogen ion, making it a reduction reaction.


Is h a molecular element?

Hydrogen, in its elemental form, forms diatomic molecules, H2 , so it can be considered molecular.


What is the balanced Equation showing the reaction of carbon and hydrogen to form methane?

The molecular formula for Methane is CH4 It's 1 atom carbon, 2 hydrogen molecules (Hydrogen molecules come in H2 gases) so the formula would be C + 2(H2) = CH4
