Question

multiple - choice question
why are there no lone pairs on the hydrogen atoms?
because it has a low electronegativity
because it doesnt like to share electrons
hydrogen is full/stable with 2 valence electrons

Explanation:

Hydrogen has only one electron shell (the 1s - shell) which can hold a maximum of 2 electrons. When it forms a bond, it achieves a stable electron - configuration with 2 valence electrons, so it doesn't have lone pairs.

Answer:

C. Hydrogen is full/stable with 2 valence electrons
