Texas CS Dept., Austin, Texas Lines: 13 Summary: There ain't no sech liquid While Mercury, glass, freon, carbon tetrachloride, and my leftover coffee are good first approximations to liquids with no hydrogen, don't bet your silly putty on it! If gasoline contains hydrogen (when in fact it doesn't -- it contains an assortment of octane and other hydrocarbon molecules) then glass is full of hydrogen. Silicon nuclei are made of the stuff. Everything normal is. So there is no H-less liquid anywhere on earth (except maybe that coffee). Is there any H-less liquid anywhere? Are neutron stars made of H-less liquid? Beats me!
