What are the most important elements in the periodic table?
Answers
Explanation:
Hydrogen
Hydrogen is one of the most important elements in the periodic table. It is a part of water, and it allows the Sun and all other stars, when there is enough of it, to fuse and create helium, as well as a ton of energy. (Relative to the mass; it's very little from a human’s perspective because the atoms are small) Which brings me to the next element:
Helium
This guy is number 2 on the table, and he's also what makes those cool balloons fly out of your reach. And fly in general. This guy is also a major part of stars. It's what is fused into heavier elements when the pressure is enough. These elements include iron, and, more importantly, carbon.
Carbon
This bad boy is number 6, and he literally “shines bright like a diamond”, except diamonds don't shine… because he is what diamonds are made of. And your pencil “lead”s. And the wood used to make the pencil. And the person using the pencil (a.k.a. You).
Carbon is certainly one of the most important elements. It is one of only a few that have 4 links. This means it can be used to for complex molecules like the ones in your body. It also is what makes up coal, diamonds, carbon nanotubes, graphite, living things… the list goes on.
It also is used for plants in the form of CO2 for photosynthesis. CO2, or carbon dioxide, also contains oxygen.
Oxygen
This fellow (number 8) is what we breathe, drink, and photosynthesise with. Well, maybe you don't do photosynthesis. Oxygen is essential to our lives. We breathe O2 to survive, we breathe out CO2, we drink H2O, and plants take in CO2 to live as well. Did I mention this gas is fatal? At high dosages, this guy is fatal. Luckily, the Earth’s atmosphere is around 70% number 7, our next element,
Nitrogen
This guy is a part of NO2 (that nitro gas you use in racing games). It also is 70% of the atmosphere we breathe. Thank God for that. We'd die of oxygen poisoning otherwise.
Those are the 5 elements that I think play the biggest roles in our existence. Be grateful that they exist.
Answer:
Hydrogen: The Most Important Element on the Periodic Table because The most important function of hydrogen in the human body is to keep you hydrated. Water is made up of hydrogen and oxygen and is absorbed by the cells of the body.
