Atomic Hydrogen
Introduction
Molecular hydrogen is di-atomic
and requires 104 kilo – calories per mole for its decomposition. The hydrogen
obtained during this decomposition is called as “Atomic Hydrogen”. The life
period of atomic hydrogen is 1/3rd of the second. i.e. two atoms of
hydrogen quickly combine and form molecular hydrogen . it was first detected
by “wood” in 1920 during the study of
hydrogen spectra.
Definition:
Hydrogen obtained by
decomposition of molecular hydrogen during heating is called as atomic-hydrogen
