The most common molecule in a molecular cloud is?

The most common molecule in a molecular cloud is molecular hydrogen (H2).


Are asteroids surrounded by a hydrogen cloud?

Some asteroids have been observed to have thin hydrogen atmospheres, but they are not typically surrounded by a dense hydrogen cloud like a gas giant planet. These hydrogen atmospheres are usually very tenuous and not very extensive compared to the atmosphere of a planet.


According to the nebular hypothesis our solar system formed from a huge rotating cloud made mostly of what?

According to the nebular hypothesis, our solar system formed from a huge rotating cloud made mostly of hydrogen and helium gas, with trace amounts of heavier elements. The cloud, or nebula, slowly collapsed under its own gravity, leading to the formation of the sun and the planets.


What is the chemical formula for a cloud?

A cloud is composed of water droplets or ice crystals suspended in the atmosphere. So, the chemical formula for a cloud would be H2O (water) or H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide) when in the form of ice crystals.


According to the nebular hypothesis our solar system formed from a huge rotating cloud formed by?

The nebular hypothesis posits that our solar system formed from a large rotating cloud of dust and gas composed mostly of hydrogen and helium, leftover from previous supernova explosions. Over time, gravity caused the cloud to collapse and form a protostar at its center, with a surrounding disk from which planets eventually coalesced.

What happens to light when it passes through hydrogen cloud in the universe?

When light passes through a hydrogen cloud in the universe, the hydrogen atoms can absorb certain wavelengths of the light. This absorption can create dark absorption lines in the spectrum of the light, revealing information about the composition and temperature of the cloud.

How many electrons clouds does hydrogen have?

Hydrogen is a non metal element. There are 1 electrons in a single atom.


Are comets and asteroids surrounded by hydrogen cloud?

Some comets develop a cloud of hydrogen gas around them when they get close to the sun, due to the sun's radiation breaking apart water molecules in the comet's icy nucleus. This creates a temporary hydrogen cloud known as a coma. Asteroids generally do not have hydrogen clouds since they are composed of rock and metal, lacking the icy material that comets have.
