Hydrogen, oxygen,
carbon, and nitrogen constitute more than 99% of the atoms in the human body,
with most of the H and O occurring as H2O. Oxygen, silicon, aluminum,
and iron are the most abundant atoms in the earth’s crust, with hydrogen,
carbon, and nitrogen being relatively rare (less than 0.2% each). Nitrogen as
dinitrogen (N2) is the predominant gas in the atmosphere, and carbon
dioxide (CO2) is present at a level of 0.05%, a small but critical
amount. Oxygen is also abundant in the atmosphere and in the oceans. What
property unites H, O, C, and N and renders these atoms so suitable to the
chemistry of life? It is their ability to form covalent bonds by electron-pair sharing. Furthermore, H, C, N, and
O are among the lightest elements of the periodic table capable of forming such
bo
