Hydrogen is the simplest element as each atom of hydrogen contain only one proton, the U.S. Energy Information Administration states on its eia.gov/kids website. Explaining that hydrogen acts as an energy carrier in that it transports energy in a usable form from one place to another, the kid-friendly site provides examples about the potential for hydrogen in a fuel, energy and electricity capacity.
Although mainstream media might be directing much attention to hydrogen’s potential in the energy sector, the universe-abundant element also has the potential to use its energy carrier attributes when it comes to hydration solutions.
