What is the luster of hydrogen?

Answer 1

The element hydrogen does have a metallic form, which exists under conditions of both low temperature and high pressure. Under more usual conditions hydrogen is a gas and as such, has no luster. As a metal it has a metallic luster much like other metals.

Answer 2

Hydrogen has no luster because it's a colorless, odorless gas. It's not exactly the life of the party when it comes to shiny appearances. But hey, at least it's got potential in other areas, like being the most abundant element in the universe.

Answer 3

Hydrogen is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas, so it does not exhibit any luster in its natural state. Luster refers to the way light interacts with the surface of a mineral or element, causing it to appear shiny or dull. Since hydrogen is a gas, it does not have a surface for light to interact with in the same way a solid or liquid would.

Answer 4

Hydrogen does not exhibit luster as it is a colorless, odorless gas in its elemental form. It is the lightest and most abundant element in the universe.
