French chemist Antoine Laurent Lavoisier (1743-1794), who is considered the founder of modern chemistry, named hydrogen from the Greek words for water former.
Some of this is already noticeable - hydro- meaning water, and -gen looking a lot like generator.
Hydrogen was named by Henry Cavendih "flammable air" in 1766; but this is not a true nickname.
Henry Cavendish is credited with the discovery of hydrogen in 1766.
Henry Cavendish is credited with the discovery of hydrogen in 1766. He identified it as a distinct element and named it "inflammable air."
Many of the first discovered elements were named by their discoverer or the location where they were discovered, such as hydrogen, named by Antoine Lavoisier, and uranium, named after the planet Uranus.
In the stock system, the compound H2O is named dihydrogen monoxide.
Antoine Lavoisier named hydrogen in 1783.
Hydrogen basically means "water maker" in Greek, because it forms water when burned.
He discovered and named Hydrogen in 1766

Hydrogen means water creator.Hydro stands for water and gen means former or creator in greece.
French chemist Antonie Lavoisier named hydrogen from the Greek words for water former.
Early 2000's.
H2Cl is a hydrogen bond formed between a million hydrogens and electrons from the outermost shell of a cl molecule. Dipole dipole attraction is not involved because of the strong electronegative forces.
Hydrogen was named by Henry Cavendih "flammable air" in 1766; but this is not a true nickname.
HI, written with no spaces, is the chemical formula for a compound named "hydrogen iodide" [not "hydrogen iodine" as written in the question.]
Hydrogen was discovered by Henry Cavendish in 1766. He recognized it as a gas formed due to metal-acid reactions. It was named hydrogen by Antonie Lavoisier.
A molecular compound is named as an acid when it can release hydrogen ions (H+) in solution. This typically occurs with compounds that have hydrogen in combination with a nonmetal such as halogens or oxygen. The compound will be named with the prefix "hydro-" followed by the nonmetal stem name and end in "ic acid".
