Hydrogen Selenide is toxic. It is made up of selenium which is also toxic‚ and hydrogen which is nontoxic. This substance is also colorless like hydrogen‚ but not like selenium which is a deep red color. There are reports of mine workers being poisoned by hydrogen selenide and selenium. Increasing industrial applications of selenium and the fact that workers may be exposed to Hydrogen Selenide have led authors to make a further investigation of the toxicity of this substance.

Lab 3: Hydrogen Spectrum Abstract When white light is viewed through a diffraction grating‚ we can see each component that makes up the light. However‚ when in an excited state‚ a gaseous element produces bright light of specific wavelengths rather than a continuous spectrum of colors. This phenomenon ultimately lead to the Neils Bohr model of the atom in 1913.

Chemist from the University of Glasgow in Scotland have taken a step closer towards producing clean hydrogen fuel in a maintainable way. Hydrogen gas is able to be burned to generate electricity without producing lethal releases‚ unlike fossil fuels. It is produced from water releasing them as gas‚ through a process called electrolysis‚ which uses electricity to break the bonds between hydrogen and oxygen. This technique is 30 times faster than the current method‚ and can be powered by renewable
