  1. Hydrogen atom

    A hydrogen atom is an atom of the chemical element hydrogen. The electrically neutral atom contains a single positively charged proton and a single negatively charged electron bound to the nucleus by the Coulomb force. Atomic hydrogen constitutes about 75% of the elemental mass of the universe. In everyday life on Earth, isolated hydrogen atoms are extremely rare. Instead, hydrogen tends to combine with other atoms in compounds, or with itself to form ordinary hydrogen gas, H2. "Atomic hydrogen" and "hydrogen atom" in ordinary English use have overlapping meanings. For example, a water molecule contains two hydrogen atoms, but does not contain atomic hydrogen.
