What are the two most abundant elements in the universe and were the first elements created?
A
Lithium and Carbon
B
Hydrogen and Neon
C
Helium and Chlorine
D
Hydrogen and Helium
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe, accounting for about 75 percent of its normal matter, and was created in the Big Bang. Helium is an element, usually in the form of a gas, that consists of a nucleus of two protons and two neutrons surrounded by two electrons.

Detailed explanation-2: -The low-mass elements, hydrogen and helium, were produced in the hot, dense conditions of the birth of the universe itself. The birth, life, and death of a star is described in terms of nuclear reactions. The chemical elements that make up the matter we observe throughout the universe were created in these reactions.

Detailed explanation-3: -Scientists have inferred that helium hydride was this first, primordial molecule. Once cooling began, hydrogen atoms could interact with helium hydride, leading to the creation of molecular hydrogen-the molecule primarily responsible for the formation of the first stars.
