Hydrogen a Non Metal

[KathChem82]

I think no metallic hydrogen is formed on earth. It was found in jupiter. Jupiter is much bigger than the earth. The pressure in its core is much higher that that of earth. So it is very possible to have metallic hydrogen here. Well haven't heard yet of metallic hydrogen that exists here on earth. None that I know.

I just had a correction. Sorry.....

Here's their graph of hydrogen's resistance falling as pressure increases.

That's a nice graph Paul. I hope I'll get to work in a lab where they do this sort of way out stuff.

The distance from the earth's surface to the core is only around 4000 miles.

Of course it is. I'd have thought nobody needed it pointed out.
