How Many Bonds Hydrogen Can Form
Hydrogen, the atom is so small, how can it bond? The atom of hydrogen has only one electron in the outer orbit. To reach a stable state, either lose this electron or gain an electron.
Looking at the principles of chemistry, hydrogen is often bonded by covalent bonds. Because it has only one electron, it can share electron pairs with other atoms to form a stable structure.
Generally, hydrogen can only form one bond. For example, in water (H2O O), hydrogen and oxygen are connected by covalent bonds, and each hydrogen atom forms one bond. In methane (CH), hydrogen is connected to carbon, and each forms one bond. Therefore, hydrogen atoms can usually form only one bond to achieve their relatively stable electronic structure. In the construction of various compounds, this rule is also followed.
