hydrogenous

/haɪˈdɹɑd͡ʒənəs/ adj

of, related to, or containing hydrogen

Word Origin Hydrogenous is built from hydrogen + -ous, meaning 'containing hydrogen'. Hydrogen itself is from Greek hydor 'water' and genes 'producing' — water-producer. The -ous suffix is a common chemical ending, like in ferrous or cuprous. The same roots give us hydrate, hydraulic, and generate.
