Hello, I need to know what the chemical formula for hydrogen is. Does anyone know?
*Hydrogen gas! Not just hydrogen! cx
H2 I believe
A chemical equation, like all equations, contains an equals sign ( = ). It shows a chemical reaction, where something turns into something else. You probably mean the chemical symbol that would represent hydrogen. The symbol for an atom of hydrogen is H. In hydrogen gas the atoms usually pair up into hydrogen molecules for which the symbol is H2. If the gas is very hot the molecules dis-associate, so then the symbol will be just H, or sometimes (H) to make it clear that monatomic hydrogen is referred to. If you want an equation : H2 + heat = 2 (H)
the chemical formular of hydrogen is H2 and will always be. H is the symbol. H2 represents the compound. H can be a unit of a compound .eg. HCl, H2CO3, H2SO4, CH3OOH,HCOOH, H2S, HI, H2O, CH3-CH(CH3)-CH2-CH(CH3)-C(CH3)2-CH2-CH3,e.t.c
