The atomic number of hydrogen is 1. Based on this fact, all of the following must be true of hydrogen gas (H₂) EXCEPT that it:
A) is stable.
B) shares one pair of electrons.
C) is polar.
D) is covalently bonded.

2 atoms of hydrogen combine together to complete their duplet and become stable. Sharing of one pair of electrons between the two hydrogen atoms take place and thus formation of covalent bond take place.

Since, both the atoms are hydrogen and have same electronegativity. So, the bond is not polar.

The atomic number of hydrogen is 1. Based on this fact, all of the following must be true of hydrogen gas (H₂) EXCEPT that it: A) is stable. B) shares one pair of electrons. C) is polar. D) is covalently bonded.
