Hydrogen

This 12-question quiz covers the basics of hydrogen, the first element on the periodic table, and it works well if you are just getting started in chemistry.

You will answer a mix of fill-in-the-blank and true or false items, such as What is the atomic number of hydrogen? and Hydrogen produces ___ when burned.

One detail that catches a lot of students off guard is what the name actually means. Hydrogen translates to "water maker," which makes sense once you see that burning it produces water.

Recommended level: beginner.
