Phase I occurs at low temperatures and pressures, and consists of a hexagonal close-packed array of freely rotating H 2 molecules. Upon increasing the pressure at low temperature, a transition to Phase II occurs at up to 110 GPa. [3] Phase II is a broken-symmetry structure in which the H 2 molecules are no longer able to rotate freely. [4]
Liquid hydrogen is typically used as a concentrated form of hydrogen storage. Storing it as liquid takes less space than storing it as a gas at normal temperature and pressure. However, the liquid density is very low compared to other common fuels. Once liquefied, it can be maintained as a liquid for some time in thermally insulated containers. [6]
At room temperature or warmer, equilibrium hydrogen gas contains about 25% of the para form and 75% of the ortho form. [31] The ortho form is an excited state, having higher energy than the para form by 1.455 kJ/mol, [32] and it converts to the para form over the course of several minutes when cooled to low temperature. [33]
Except at extreme temperatures and pressures, atoms form the three classical states of matter: solid, liquid and gas. Complex molecules can also form various mesophases such as liquid crystals, which are intermediate between the liquid and solid phases. At high temperatures or strong electromagnetic fields, atoms become ionized, forming plasma.

Compressed hydrogen is a storage form whereby hydrogen gas is kept under pressures to increase the storage density. Compressed hydrogen in hydrogen tanks at 350 bar (5,000 psi) and 700 bar (10,000 psi) are used for hydrogen tank systems in vehicles, based on type IV carbon-composite technology.
A hydrogen atom is an atom of the chemical element hydrogen. The electrically neutral hydrogen atom contains a single positively charged proton in the nucleus, and a single negatively charged electron bound to the nucleus by the Coulomb force. Atomic hydrogen constitutes about 75% of the baryonic mass of the universe. [1]
