Every gases main component is hydrogen. The sun gives off trillions of lbs of hydrogen every day. Even though its impossible to get anything to the sun, I'll give it about 20 yrs before they think of a way to get something to collects the gas there without burning and be able to come back to earth safely.

Every gases main component is not hydrogen. If you are trying to make an association between heaver elements and hydrogen atoms, all matter is the byproduct of hydrogen fusion in the core of stars. All matter is made up of the same sets of subatomic particles, but in different quantities in the nucleus and orbiting particles. Accurately fizzling larger elements into component subatomic pieces is not possible in our current stage of technology.

Hydrogen is plentiful on Earth. There is an incredible amount in the water of this planet. It can be separated from the oxygen through electrolysis.

The Sun fuses 620 million metric tons of hydrogen each second into 580 million metric tons of helium. About 4 million metric tons per second is generated as energy in the core of the star. This energy can take from seconds to 200,000 years to reach the surface and be broadcast as light and other forms of energy. Some forms of energy generated in the Suns core do not interact with matter as do photons, and therefore only take seconds to break free from the surface of the Sun. I don't think we will ever be able to mine our star for hydrogen. It would be easier to mine Saturn and/or Jupiter for the prime elements.

What is the reason for the symbol of hydrogen?

I guess scientists figured that, since the word, "hydrogen" starts with an "H", why not use it?


What kind of gas does fuel cell cars use?

Hydrogen gas


What type of vehicles would use hydrogen fuel?

There are a few different types of vehicles that use hydrogen fuel. You can find cars and other forms of transport that use hydrogen, but the biggest consumer would have to be hydrogen fueled space rockets.


What is the difference between a hydrogen electric and and an electric car?

Electric cars can be charged with electricity, where as hydrogen cars use a fuel cell that would have to be refilled at a refueling station. It doesn't look like there will be many hydrogen cars on the road until 2020. Take a look at this article: http://www.renewable-energy-news.info/electric-vs-hydrogen-the-future-of-green-cars-battle-it-out/


Fuel-cell cars use hydrogen gas and release what into the atmosphere.?

Water vapour.


Fuel-cell cars use hydrogen gas and release into the atmosphere?

water vapor


Have scientists discovered the method that plants use to extract hydrogen from water?

Yes, scientists have discovered that plants use a process called photosynthesis to extract hydrogen from water. During photosynthesis, plants capture light energy to split water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen. This hydrogen is then used in the production of sugars and other organic molecules within the plant.


How are the cars of the future going to be made?

There are already some fuel-cell cars out, they use a fuel cell. There have been prototypes of cars that run on water. Cars that run on hydrogen also. Electric cars definitely


What types of gases do cars use?

All cars would use compressed air (or nitrogen) to inflate tyres. Most cars would use petrol or diesel as a fuel (in the US petrol is known as gas). Some cars use Propane gas as a fuel. Technology is being developed to fuel cars with Hydrogen gas.

What would you use to run your cars with no fossil fuels?

We will have to run electric cars, which exist today. There is talk also of cars that run on compressed air. Hydrogen is another fuel source that will run cars if we can manufacture it cheaply enough, and store it safely in the cars.
