Entry term(s) hidrógeno-1
protio
Scope note: El primer elemento químico de la tabla periódica, con el símbolo atómico H y el número atómico 1. El protio (peso atómico 1) es, con diferencia, el isótopo de hidrógeno más común. El hidrógeno también existe como el isótopo estable DEUTERIO (peso atómico 2) y el isótopo radioactivo inestable TRITIO (peso atómico 3). El hidrógeno se combina en una molécula diatómica a temperatura ambiente y aparece como gas incoloro e inodoro altamente inflamable.

RDF Unique Identifier: https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D006859
Scope note: The first chemical element in the periodic table with atomic symbol H, and atomic number 1. Protium (atomic weight 1) is by far the most common hydrogen isotope. Hydrogen also exists as the stable isotope DEUTERIUM (atomic weight 2) and the radioactive isotope TRITIUM (atomic weight 3). Hydrogen forms into a diatomic molecule at room temperature and appears as a highly flammable colorless and odorless gas.
Annotation: H or H1; H2 or 2H (superscript) = DEUTERIUM; H2 (subscript) = HYDROGEN; H3 or 3H = TRITIUM; production of H ions = probably PH
