Tritium (from Ancient Greek τρίτος (trítos) ' third ') or hydrogen-3 (symbol T or 3 H) is a rare and radioactive isotope of hydrogen with a half-life of ~12.3 years. The tritium nucleus (t, sometimes called a triton) contains one proton and two neutrons, whereas the nucleus of the common isotope hydrogen-1 (protium) contains one proton and no neutrons, and that of non-radioactive ...
Hydrogen is a chemical element; it has symbol H and atomic number 1. It is the lightest element and, at standard conditions, is a gas of diatomic molecules with the formula H 2, sometimes called dihydrogen, [11] hydrogen gas, molecular hydrogen, or simply hydrogen. It is colorless, odorless, [12] non-toxic, and highly combustible.
Has no known biological role, and is extremely rare in the Earth's crust. The isotope plutonium-238 is used as an energy source in some heart pacemakers. [11] Both toxic and radioactive. polonium: 84: 1b: Has no known biological role, and due to its short half-life, is nearly nonexistent outside of research facilities. [11] Both highly toxic ...
Frustrated by the constraints of Earth, a team of California scientists took tumor research to space—and may have discovered a ‘kill switch’ for cancer Erin Prater February 4, 2024 at 2:29 PM
US Geological Survey researchers say there could be 5.6 trillion metric tonnes of hydrogen in rocks and underground reservoirs Small fraction of hydrogen trapped under Earth can power humanity for ...
Natural hydrogen (known as white hydrogen, geologic hydrogen, [1] geogenic hydrogen, [2] or gold hydrogen) is molecular hydrogen present on Earth that is formed by natural processes [3] [4] (as opposed to hydrogen produced in a laboratory or in industry).
At just 19 years old, Eldiara Doucette — known on social media as "Bionic Barbie" — was diagnosed with synovial sarcoma, a rare form of soft tissue cancer that affects only 1,000 people per ...
Hydrogen (H) is the most abundant of the chemical elements, constituting roughly 75% of the universe's elemental mass. [1] Ionized hydrogen is just a proton. Stars in the main sequence are mainly composed of hydrogen in its plasma state. Elemental hydrogen is relatively rare on Earth, and is industrially produced from hydrocarbons such as methane.
