Specific Heat of Hydrogen (H) + Sources, Uses, Origin ... 2022

Specific heat is an important physical property for materials and atomic elements like Hydrogen. Ok, so what is the specific heat of an atom of H?

Note: Learn more about the specific heat here.

In the case of Hydrogen the specific heat is 14.304 J/gK. Well... speaking of him, there are cool facts about Hydrogen that most people don't know about. Let me show you...

Hydrogen Data

Hydrogen Specific Heat

14.304 J/gK

Sources

Commercial quantities are produced by reacting superheated steam with methane or carbon. In lab work from reaction of metals with acid solutions or electrolysis.

Uses

Most hydrogen is used in the production of ammonia. Also used in balloons and in metal refining. Also used as fuel in rockets. Its two heavier isotopes are: deuterium (D) and tritium (T) used respectively for nuclear fission and fusion.

Name Origin

Greek: hydro (water) and genes (generate)

State at 20 °C

Gas

Description

Tasteless, colorless, odorless gas. The most abundant element in the universe. Tenth most abundant element in the earth's crust.

Video

Are you having trouble understanding the basics of atomic elements? This video will walk you through:

• What is an element
• What is a substance
• What Elements look like
• How a small number of atoms can be joined and form completely different substances

Citation

When you need to include a fact or piece of information in an assignment or essay you should also include where and how you found that piece of information.

That gives credibility to your paper and it is sometimes required in higher education.

To make your life (and citation) easier just copy & paste the information below into your assignment or essay:

Luz, Gelson. "Specific Heat of Hydrogen (H) + Sources, Uses, Origin ..." Materials. Gelsonluz.com. dd mmmm. yyyy. <URL>

Now replace dd, mmmm and yyyy with the day, month, and year you browsed this page. Also replace URL for the actual url of this page (The < and > stay, ok?). This citation format is based on MLA.
