Options
- Aprotium
- Bdeuterium
- Ctitrium
- DAll of these
Correct answer
A. protium
Step-by-step solution
Protium ( ₁^1 H ) deuterium or heavy hydrogen ( ₁^2 H . or D ) and tritium ( ₁^3 H . or T ) are the isotopes of hydrogen. Protium or ordinary hydrogen has one proton and no neutron in the nucleus and one electron revolves around the nucleus. It is the most abundant and common form of hydrogen (approximately 99.98 % ). ₁^2 H + _ l ^2 H ₁^3 H + ₁^1 H
