Question

Which scientist first prepared the Hydrogen gas?

  1. J.J. Thomson
  2. Robert Boyle
  3. Henry Cavendish
  4. Lavoisier

hintHint:

The scientist thought it to be ordinary gas and ignored it.

The correct answer is: Robert Boyle


    The correct option is b) Robert Boyle.
    • Robert Boyle produced hydrogen gas in 1671 during his iron and acid experiments. 
    • Robert Boyle discovered and described that the reaction of scrap iron with dilute acid resulted in the production of hydrogen gas.
    • Between 1766 and his 1781, Henry Cavendish was the first to recognize that hydrogen gas is itself a substance, which when burned produces water. He called it "flammable air."
