What is it exactly that causes the diatomic hydrogen to have such a greater volume than monatomic hydrogen?
Monatomic hydrogen volume and diatomic hydrogen volume?
Click For Summary
SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the volume differences between diatomic hydrogen (H2) and monatomic hydrogen (H). It is established that diatomic hydrogen has a greater volume due to its molecular structure, which allows for more significant intermolecular interactions compared to monatomic hydrogen. The conversation also highlights the rarity of monatomic hydrogen in bulk matter, suggesting that it primarily exists in extreme conditions, such as deep space.
