Hydrogen is basically the motherelement in the universe, hence it being #1. This has of course led to it evolving into different elements, kind of like bacteria evolved into humans in the course of a few billion years, and thus we can always find traces of hydrogen in all other elements, and that's pretty much the relationship between hydrogen and other elements.

Why do the isotopes of hydrogen have a greater ratio of mass difference than the ratios for any other isotopes of other elements?

The isotopes of hydrogen have a greater ratio of mass difference because hydrogen has the smallest atomic mass compared to other elements. Since the mass of hydrogen isotopes differs significantly (H-1, H-2, and H-3), the ratio of their mass difference is also relatively larger. This makes the difference in mass between hydrogen isotopes more pronounced compared to isotopes of other elements, which have higher atomic masses.


Is hydrogen light or heavy compared to the other elements?

It is the lightest element.


What is the role of hydrogen and helium in the sythesis of elements?

Hydrogen and helium are the most abundant elements in the universe. And stars use them for power. To put it simply, hydrogen is fused into helium, and helium into carbon. All the heavier elements are made from there up through iron. The trans-iron elements are made is a supernova. It could be argued that hydrogen and helium are the basic building blocks of other elements.


What is the difference between hydrogen and other elements?

Hydrogen is the lightest and most abundant element in the universe. It is unique in that it is the only element that does not contain any neutrons in its nucleus. This makes hydrogen an important element in chemical reactions and plays a crucial role in the formation of stars and the universe.


Which other elements are essential for life?

These elements are: oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, phosphorus.
