Hydrogen applications and properties

When it comes to hydrogen
Hydrogen, the lightest element, has no color or taste, is light in weight and active. It has extraordinary ability in the principle of all things and the use of all things, which can be studied.

The properties of hydrogen are lively and changeable. At room temperature, it is still stable, but when it encounters suitable temperature and pressure, or when it meets a specific medium, it will rejuvenate its activity. It can be combined with many elements, such as oxygenation, and when it burns, it will generate water. Its flame is pure blue, and it is very hot. The reaction formula: $2H_ {2} + O_ {2}\ stackrel {ignited }{=\!=\!=} 2H_ {2} O $. This is the manifestation of hydrogen in the combustion reaction. It can release energy efficiently, and the product is only water, clean and pollution-free. It is extremely valuable in today's world of environmental protection and heavy cleanliness.

As for the application of hydrogen, it involves a wide range of domains. First, the domain of energy. In today's world, traditional energy sources are gradually exhausted, and pollution is heavy, so hydrogen energy has emerged. Using hydrogen as a combustion, it can be used for cars. Hydrogen fuel cell vehicles produce electricity by hydrogen-oxygen reaction and drive the machine. Its operation is also quiet, noise-free and pollution-free, and energy efficiency is quite high. Compared with other fuel-powered vehicles, it does not emit carbides, nitrogen oxides and other filth, which is of great contribution to the cleanliness of the atmosphere and the protection of the environment. It can also be used for power generation. In specific places, hydrogen power stations are built. Hydrogen is used as a source and chemical energy is used as electricity for civilian and industrial needs. It is stable and clean.

Second, the field of industry. In the chemical industry, hydrogen is the key raw material. The synthesis of ammonia requires hydrogen. Nitrogen and hydrogen are combined into ammonia with the help of high temperature, high pressure and catalysts. This is the basis for the manufacture of nitrogen fertilizers, which is related to the prosperity of global agricultural products. Reaction formula: $N_ {2} + 3H_ {2}\ underset {high temperature and high pressure} {\ overset {catalyst} {\ rightleftharpoons}}} 2NH_ {3} $. In the oil refining industry, hydrogen can be used to improve the quality of oil, so that the sulfur content of oil is reduced, the quality is better, and it also meets the regulations of environmental protection.

Third, the field of material science. Hydrogen can be used in the treatment of materials. For example, metal materials, after hydrogen treatment, their internal structure may change and their properties may also be changed. Or increase their toughness, or improve their corrosion resistance, so that the material can be used in different working conditions.

The characteristics and applications of hydrogen are the important path of development in this world. Its clean and efficient performance is suitable for the environment; its ability to be widely used in various industries benefits the prosperity of the industry. With time, in-depth investigation, and rational use, hydrogen will surely add luster to human well-being and lead to new changes in technology and life.
