H2Te, or dihydrogen telluride, is a chemical compound composed of two hydrogen atoms and one tellurium atom. It is a colorless gas with a pungent odor, similar to that of rotten garlic. H2Te is part of the group of compounds known as hydrides, which are formed when hydrogen bonds with other elements. In terms of its properties, H2Te is less stable than its counterparts, such as H2S (hydrogen sulfide) and H2Se (hydrogen selenide). It can be produced through various chemical reactions and is primarily of interest in scientific research rather than commercial applications.
