ppt on hydrogen for class XI th chemistry

INTRODUCTION
▪ Hydrogen, chemical element that exists as a gas at
room temperature. When hydrogen gas burns in air, it
forms water. French chemist Antoine Lavoisier named
hydrogen from the Greek words for “water former.”
▪ Hydrogen has the smallest atoms of any element. A
hydrogen atom contains one proton, and only one
electron . The proton is the center, or nucleus, of the
hydrogen atom, and the electron travels around the
nucleus.
▪ Pure hydrogen exists as hydrogen gas, in which pairs of
hydrogen atoms bond together to make molecules.

POSITION IN THE PERIODIC TABLE
▪ Hydrogen is the first element in the periodic table of
the elements and is represented by the symbol H.
▪ Hydrogen, with only one proton, is the simplest
element. It is usually placed in Period 1 and Group 1
of the periodic table.
▪ Hydrogen can combine chemically with almost every
other element and forms more compounds than does
any other element. These compounds include water,
minerals, and hydrocarbons—compounds made of
hydrogen and carbon—such as petroleum and natural
gas.

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF H2
➢Dihydrogen is a :
➢Colourless ,
➢Odourless
➢Tasteless
➢Combustible gas
➢Lighter than air
➢Insoluble in water
➢It’s melting point – 18.73 K
& boiling point – 23.67 K

CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF H2
▪ Hydrogen gas does not usually react with other chemicals at
room temperature, because the bond between the hydrogen
atoms is very strong and can only be broken with a large
amount of energy.
▪ Since its orbital is incomplete with 1s1 electronic
configuration, it does combine with almost all the elements
.
It accomplishes reactions by:
1.loss of one e- to give H+
2.gain of an e- to form H-
3.sharing electrons to form a single covalent bond.

Bosch reaction
Hydrogenation

Transfer hydrogenation
Hydrogenolysis

BOSCH REACTION
The Bosch reaction is a chemical reaction between carbon
dioxide and hydrogen that produces elemental carbon (graphite), water and
a 10% return of invested heat. This reaction requires the introduction of
iron as a catalyst and requires a temperature level of 530-730 degrees
Celsius.
The overall reaction is as follows:
CO2(g) + 2 H2(g) → C(s) + 2 H2O(g)
The above reaction is actually the result of two reactions. The first
reaction, the reverse water gas shift reaction, is a fast one.
CO2 + H2 → CO + H2O
The second reaction controls the reaction rate.
CO + H2 → C + H2O

The overall reaction produces 2.3×103 joules for every gram of
carbon produced at 650 °C. Reaction temperatures are in the range
of 450 to 600 °C.
The reaction can be accelerated in the presence of
an iron, cobalt or nickel catalyst. Ruthenium also serves to speed
up the reaction.
Together with the Sabatier reaction the Bosch reaction is
studied as a way to remove carbon dioxide and to generate clean
water aboard a space station
The reaction is also used to produce graphite
for radiocarbon dating with Accelerator Mass Spectrometry.
It is named after the German chemist Carl Bosch.

Because of the importance of hydrogen, many related reactions
have been developed for its use. Most hydrogenations use gaseous
hydrogen (H2), but some involve the alternative sources of hydrogen, not
H2: these processes are called transfer hydrogenations. The reverse
reaction, removal of hydrogen from a molecule, is called dehydrogenation.
Hydrogenation
To treat with hydrogen - is a chemical reaction between
molecular hydrogen (H2) and another compound or element, usually in
the presence of a catalyst. The process is commonly employed
to reduce or saturate organic compounds. Hydrogenation typically
constitutes the addition of pairs of hydrogen atoms to a molecule,
generally an alkene. Catalysts are required for the reaction to be usable;
non-catalytic hydrogenation takes place only at very high
temperatures. Hydrogen adds to double and triple bonds in hydrocarbons

A reaction where bonds are broken while hydrogen is added is
called hydrogenolysis, a reaction that may occur to carbon-carbon and
carbon-heteroatom (oxygen, nitrogen or halogen) bonds. Hydrogenation
differs from protonation or hydride addition: in hydrogenation, the
products have the same charge as the reactants.
An illustrative example of a hydrogenation reaction is the
addition of hydrogen to maleic acid to form succinic acid. Numerous
important applications of this petrochemical are found in pharmaceutical
and food industries. Hydrogenation of unsaturated
fats produces saturated fats and, in some cases, trans fats.

DEHYDROGENATION
Dehydrogenation is a chemical reaction that involves the
removal of hydrogen from a molecule as (H2). It is the reverse process
of hydrogenation. Dehydrogenation reactions may be either large scale
industrial processes or smaller scale laboratory procedures.
Classes of the reaction
There are a variety of classes of dehydrogenations:
•Aromatization — Six-membered alicyclic rings can be aromatized
in the presence of hydrogenation catalysts, the elements sulfur
and selenium, or quinones (such as DDQ).
•Oxidation — The conversion
of alcohols to ketones or aldehydes can be effected by metal catalysts
such as copper chromite. In the Oppenauer oxidation, hydrogen is
transferred from one alcohol to another to bring about the oxidation.

•Dehydrogenation of amines — amines can be converted
to nitriles using a variety of reagents, such as Iodine
pentafluoride (IF5).
•Dehydrogenation of paraffin's and olefins — paraffin's like n-
pentane and isopentane can be converted
to pentene and isoprene using chromium (III) oxide as a catalyst at
500 degree C.
Dehydrogenation converts saturated fats to unsaturated fats.
Enzymes that catalyze dehydrogenation are called dehydrogenases.
Dehydrogenation processes are used extensively to produce styrene in
the fine chemicals, oleochemicals, petrochemicals, and detergents
industries.

TRANSFER HYDROGENATION
Is the addition of hydrogen (H2; dihydrogen
in inorganic and organometallic chemistry) to a molecule from a source other
than gaseous H2. It is applied in industry and in organic synthesis, in part
because of the inconvenience and expense of using gaseous H2. One large scale
application of transfer hydrogenation is coal liquefaction using "donor solvents"
such as tetralin
HYDROGENOLYSIS
Hydrogenolysis is a chemical reaction whereby a carbon–carbon or
carbon–heteroatom single bond is cleaved or undergoes "lysis" by
hydrogen. The heteroatom may vary, but it usually is oxygen, nitrogen, or
sulfur. A related reaction is hydrogenation, where hydrogen is added to the
molecule, without cleaving bonds. Usually hydrogenolysis is conducted
catalytically using hydrogen gas.

ISOTOPES OF
HYDROGEN
Hydrogen has three naturally
occurring isotopes,
denoted 1H, 2H and 3H. Other,
highly unstable nuclei (4H to 7H)
have been synthesized in the
laboratory but not observed in
nature

1H is the most common hydrogen isotope with
an abundance of more than 99.98%. Because
the nucleus of this isotope consists of only a
single proton, it is given the descriptive but
rarely used formal name protium.
1H

2H, the other stable hydrogen isotope, is known as deuterium and
contains one proton and one neutron in its nucleus. Essentially all
deuterium in the universe is thought to have been produced at the
time of the Big Bang, and has endured since that time. Deuterium
is not radioactive, and does not represent a significant toxicity
hazard. Water enriched in molecules that include deuterium
instead of normal hydrogen is called heavy water. Deuterium and
its compounds are used as a non-radioactive label in chemical
experiments and in solvents for 1H-NMR spectroscopy. Heavy
water is used as a neutron moderator and coolant for nuclear
reactors. Deuterium is also a potential fuel for
commercial nuclear fusion
2H

3H is known as tritium and contains one proton and two
neutrons in its nucleus. It is radioactive, decaying into helium-
3 through beta decay with a half-life of 12.32 years. It is so
radioactive that it can be used in luminous paint, making it
useful in such things as watches. The glass prevents the small
amount of radiation from getting out. Small amounts of
tritium occur naturally because of the interaction of cosmic
rays with atmospheric gases; tritium has also been released
during nuclear weapons tests. It is used in nuclear fusion
reactions, as a tracer in isotope geochemistry, and specialized
in self-powered lighting devices. Tritium has also been used in
chemical and biological labeling experiments as a radiolabe
3H

4H contains one proton and three neutrons in its nucleus. It
is a highly unstable isotope of hydrogen. It has been
synthesized in the laboratory by bombarding tritium with
fast-moving deuterium nuclei. In this experiment, the
tritium nuclei captured neutrons from the fast-moving
deuterium nucleus. The presence of the hydrogen-4 was
deduced by detecting the emitted protons. Its atomic
mass is 4.02781 ± 0.00011. It decays through neutron
emission with a half-life of (1.39 ± 0.10) × 10−22 seconds.
4H

5H is a highly unstable isotope of hydrogen. The
nucleus consists of a proton and four neutrons.
It has been synthesized in the laboratory by
bombarding tritium with fast-moving tritium
nuclei. In this experiment, one tritium nucleus
captures two neutrons from the other, becoming
a nucleus with one proton and four neutrons.
The remaining proton may be detected, and the
existence of hydrogen-5 deduced. It decays
through double neutron emission and has a half-
life of at least 9.1 × 10−22 seconds.
5H

6H decays through triple neutron
emission and has a half-life of
2.90×10−22 seconds. It consists of 1
proton and 5 neutrons.
6H

7H consists of a proton and six neutrons. It was first
synthesized in 2003 by a group of Russian, Japanese
and French scientists at RIKEN's RI Beam Science
Laboratory by bombarding hydrogen with helium-
8 atoms. In the resulting reaction, the helium-8's
neutrons were donated to the hydrogen's nucleus.
The two remaining protons were detected by the
"RIKEN telescope", a device composed of several
layers of sensors, positioned behind the target of the
RI Beam cyclotron.
7H

Hydrogen is the only element that has different names
for its isotopes in common use today. During the early study of
radioactivity, various heavy radioactive isotopes were given
their own names, but such names are no longer used, except for
deuterium and tritium. The symbols D and T (instead
of2H and 3H) are sometimes used for deuterium and tritium,
but the corresponding symbol for protium, P, is already in use
for phosphorus and thus is not available for protium. In
its nomenclatural guidelines, the International Union of Pure
and Applied Chemistry allows any of D, T, 2H, and 3H to be
used, although 2H and 3H are preferred.

Hydrogen Economy (Hydrogen As Fuel)
With advancement of science and technology we realize in
order to make our lives comfortable fossil fuels are depleating
at an alarming rate and will be exhausted soon. The electricity
cannot be stored to run automobiles. It is not possible to store
and transport nuclear energy. Hydrogen is another alternative
source of energy and hence called as ‘hydrogen economy’.
Hydrogen has some advantages as fuel
• Available in abundance in combined form as water.
• On combustion produces H2O. Hence pollution free.
• H2-O2 fuel cell give more power.
• Excellent reducing agent. Therefore can be used as
substitute of carbon in reduction for processes in industry.

A Vision of a Hydrogen
Future"I believe that water will one day be employed as fuel, that
hydrogen and oxygen which constitute it, used singly or
together, will furnish an inexhaustible source of heat and
light, of an intensity of which coal is not capable. I believe
then that when the deposits of coal are exhausted, we shall
heat and warm ourselves with water. Water will be the coal
of the future."
Jules Vernes (1870) L´île mystérieuse

HYDROGEN DAMAGE
Hydrogen damage is the generic name given to a large number
of metal degradation processes due to interaction with hydrogen.
Hydrogen is present practically everywhere, several kilometers above the
earth and inside the earth. Engineering materials are exposed to hydrogen and
they may interact with it resulting in various kinds of structural damage.
Damaging effects of hydrogen in metallic materials have been known since
1875 when W. H. Johnson reported “some remarkable changes produced
in iron by the action of hydrogen and acids”. During the intervening years
many similar effects have been observed in different structural materials,
such as steel, aluminum, titanium, and zirconium. Because of the
technological importance of hydrogen damage, many people explored the
nature, causes and control measures of hydrogen related degradation of
metals. Hardening, embrittlement and internal damage are the main hydrogen
damage processes in metals. This article consists of a classification of
hydrogen damage, brief description of the various processes and their
mechanisms, and some guidelines for the control of hydrogen damage.

▪ Hydrogen embrittlement is the process by which various
metals, most importantly high-strength steel,
become brittle and fracture following exposure
to hydrogen. Hydrogen embrittlement is often the result of
unintentional introduction of hydrogen into susceptible
metals during forming or finishing operations and
increases cracking in the material.
▪ Hydrogen embrittlement is also used to describe the
formation of zircaloy hydride. Use of the term in this
context is common in the nuclear industry.
HYDROGEN EMBRITTLEMENT

HYDROGEN LEAK TESTING
Hydrogen leak testing is the normal way in which
a hydrogen pressure vessel or installation is checked for leaks or flaws. There
are various tests.
The Hydrostatic test, The vessel is filled with a nearly incompressible
liquid - usually water or oil - and examined for leaks or permanent changes in
shape. The test pressure is always considerably more than the operating
pressure to give a margin for safety, typically 150% of the operating pressure.
The Burst test, The vessel is filled with a gas and tested for leaks. The
test pressure is always considerably more than the operating pressure to give
a margin for safety, typically 200% or more of the operating pressure.
The Helium leak test, The leak detection method uses helium (the lightest
inert gas) as a tracer gas and detects it in concentrations as small as one part
in 10 million. The helium is selected primarily because it penetrates small
leaks readily.

Usually a vacuum inside the object is created with an external
pump connected to the instrument.
Alternatively helium can be injected inside the product while the
product itself is enclosed in a vacuum chamber connected to the
instrument. In this case Burst and leakage tests can be combined in
one operation.
The Hydrogen sensor, The object is filled with a mixture of
5% hydrogen/ 95% nitrogen, (below 5.7% hydrogen is non-
flammable (ISO-10156). This is called typically a sniffing test.
The handprobe connected to the microelectronic hydrogen
sensors is used to check the object. An audio signal increases in
proximity of a leak. Detection of leaks go down to 5x10-7 cubic
centimeters per second. Compared to the helium test: hydrogen is
cheaper than helium, no need for a vacuum, the instrument could be
cheaper.

Hydrogen safety covers the safe production,
handling and use of hydrogen. Hydrogen poses unique
challenges due to its ease of leaking, low-energy ignition,
wide range of combustible fuel-air mixtures, buoyancy, and
its ability to embrittle metals that must be accounted for to
ensure safe operation. Liquid hydrogen poses additional
challenges due to its increased density and the extremely
low temperatures needed to keep it in liquid form.
HYDROGEN SAFETY

OCCURRENCE OF DIHYDROGEN
▪ Hydrogen is the tenth most common element on Earth.
Because it is so light, though, hydrogen accounts for
less than 1 percent of Earth's total mass. It is usually
found in compounds. Pure hydrogen gas rarely occurs
in nature, although volcanoes and some oil wells
release small amounts of hydrogen gas.
▪ Hydrogen is in nearly every compound in the human
body. For example, it is in keratin, the main protein
that forms our hair and skin, and in the enzymes that
digest food in our intestines. Hydrogen is in the
molecules in food that provide energy: fats, proteins,
and carbohydrates.

PREPARATION OF DIHYDROGEN
▪ Laboratory preparation of dihydrogen:
1.It is usually prepared by the reaction of granulated
zinc with dilute hydrochloric acid. The chemical
equation for this reaction is the following:
Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl2 + H2
2.It can also be prepared by the reaction of zinc with
aqueous alkali. The chemical equation for this
reaction is the following:
Zn +2NaOH Na2ZnO2 + H2
(Sodium zincate)

economical method of producing ammonia from air and
seawater. In his process, nitrogen is separated from the other
components of air through distillization. Hydrogen is obtained

combustion.
▪ Dihydrogen can release more energy than petrol's.
▪ HYDROGEN ECONOMY: The basic principle of
hydrogen economy is the transportation & storage of
energy in the form of liquid or gaseous dihydrogen.
▪ Energy is transmitted in the form of dihydrogen & not
as electric power.
▪ It is also use in fuel cell for generation of electric
power.

HYDRIDES
▪ Dihydrogen also forms ionic bonds with some metals,
at a high temperature, creating a compound called a
hydride.
▪ If E is the symbol of an element then hydride can be
expressed as EHX (e.g. MgH2) or EmHn (e.g. B2H6).
▪ The hydrides are classified into three categories:
1.Ionic or saline or saltlike hydrides.
2.Covalent or molecular hydrides.
3.Metallic or non-stoichiometric hydrides.

Nearly all elements are able to form hydride
compound

IONIC OR SALINE HYDRIDES
▪ These are stoichiometric compounds of dihydrogen
formed with most of the s-block elements which are
highly electropositive in character.
▪ Covalent character is found in the lighter metal hydrides
(e.g. LiH, BeH2 & MgH2).
▪ The ionic hydrides are crystalline, non-volatile & non-
conducting in solid state.

dihydrogen gas at anode, which confirms the existence of
H-ion.

considered as hydrides. Being covalent they are volatile
compounds.

METALLIC HYDRIDES
▪ These are formed by many d-block & f-block elements.
▪ The metals of group 7,8 & 9 do not form hydride.
▪ These hydrides conduct heat & electricity though not as
efficiently as their parent metals do.
▪ Unlike saline hydrides, they are almost non-stoichiometric,
being deficient in hydrogen. For e.g. LaH2.87 & YbH2.55.
▪ Law of constant composition does not hold good.
▪ The property of absorption of hydrogen on transition metal
is widely used in catalytic reduction/hydrogenation
reactions for the preparation of large number of compounds.
▪ Some of the metals can accommodate a very large volume
of hydrogen & can be used as its storage media.

Water
▪ A major part of all living organisms is made up of
water.
▪ Human body has about 65% & some plants have as
much as 95% water.
▪ It is a crucial compound for the survival of all life
forms.
▪ It is a solvent of great importance.

Physical properties of water
▪ It is a colourless & tasteless liquid.
▪ The unusual properties of water in the condensed
phase (liquid & solid) are due to the presence of
extensive hydrogen bonding between water molecules.
▪ Water has a higher specific heat, thermal conductivity,
surface tension, dipole moment & dielectric constant
when compared to other liquids.
▪ It is an excellent solvent for transportation of ions &
molecules required for plant & animal metabolism.
▪ Due to hydrogen bonding with polar molecules, even
covalent compounds like alcohol & carbohydrates
dissolve in water.

STRUCTURE OF WATER
▪ In the gas phase water is a bent molecule with a bond angle of
104.50 ,
and O-H bond length of 95.7 pm.
▪ It is a highly polar molecule .
▪ In the liquid phase water molecules are associated together by
hydrogen bonds.
▪ Density of water is more than that of ice.

Hydrogen Bonding in Water:
Hydrogen bonds are chemical bonds that form between
molecules containing a hydrogen atom bonded to a strongly
electronegative atom . Because the electronegative atom
pulls the electron from the hydrogen atom, the atoms form
a very polar molecule, meaning one end is negatively
charged and the other end is positively charged. Hydrogen
bonds form between these molecules because the negative
ends of the molecules are attracted to the positive ends of
other molecules, and vice versa. Hydrogen bonding makes
water form a liquid at room temperature.

STRUCTURE OF ICE:
▪ Ice has a highly ordered three dimensional
hydrogen bonded structure.
▪ Examination of ice crystals with x-rays shows that
each oxygen atom is surrounded tetrahedrally by
four other oxygen atoms a distance of 276pm.
▪ Hydrogen bonding gives ice a rather open type
structure with wide holes. These holes can hold
some other molecules of appropriate size
interstitially.

Chemical properties of water
▪ Amphoteric nature: it has the ability to act as an acid as
well as a base i.e., it behaves as an amphoteric substance.
In the Bronsted sense it acts an acid with NH3 and a base with
H2S.
H2O+ NH3 OH- + NH4
+
H2O+ H2S H3O++ HS-
The auto-protolysis (self- ionization) of water takes place as
follows:
H2O +H2O H3O+ +OH-
acid-1 base-2 acid-2 base-1

REDOX REACTIONS INVOLVING WATER
▪ Water can be easily reduced to dihydrogen by highly
electropositive metals.
2H2O +2Na 2NaOH +H2
Thus ,it is a great source of dihydrogen.
▪ Water is oxidised to O2 during photosynthesis.
6CO2 +12H2O C6H12O6 + 6H2O +6O2
▪ With fluorine also it is oxidised toO2.
2F2 + 2H2O 4H+ + 4F- +O2

Hydrolysis reaction
▪ Due to high dielectric constant, it has a very strong
hydrating tendency. It dissolves many ionic
compounds. However, certain covalent& some
ionic compounds are hydrolysed in water.
P4O10 +6H2O 4H3PO4
SiCl4 +2H2O SiO2 + 4HCl
N3- + 3H2O NH3 +3OH-

A hydrolysis process generally involves water

HYDRATES FORMATION
▪ From aqueous solutions many salts can be crystallised
as hydrated salts. Such an association of water is of
different types viz.,
(i) coordinated water e.g.,
[Cr(H2O)6 ]3+ 3Cl-
(ii) interstitial water e.g.,
BaCl2.2H2O
(iii) hydrogen-bonded water e.g.,
[Cu(H2O)4]2+SO4
2-.H2O in CuSO4.5H2O

HYDROGEN PEROXIDE:
▪ Hydrogen peroxide is an important chemical used in pollution
control treatment of domestic & industrial effluents.
PREPARATION:
▪ It can be prepared by the following methods:
1.Acidifying barium peroxide & removing excess water by
evaporation under reduced pressure gives hydrogen peroxide.
BaO2.8H2O+H2SO4 BaSO4+H2O2+8H2O
2.Preoxodisulphate, obtained by electrolytic oxidation of
acidified sulphate solutions at high current density, on
hydrolysis yields hydrogen peroxide.
2HSO4
- electrolysis HO3SOOSO3H hydrolysis 2HSO4
-
+2H++H2O2

Cont….
▪ This method is now used for the laboratory preparation of D2O2.
K2S2O8+2D2O 2KDSO4+D2O2
3.Industially it is prepared by the auto-oxidation of 2-
alklylanthraquinols.
2-ethylanthraquinol H2O2+(oxidised product)
▪ In this case 1% H2O2 is formed. It is extracted with water &
concentrated to 30% (by mass) by distillation under reduced
pressure. It can be further concentrated to 85% by careful
distillation under low pressure. The remaining water can be
frozen out to obtain pure H2O2.
