Why is the bond between two single hydrogen atoms stable?
A. It is not stable, each hydrogen only has 1 electron and they need 8 electrons to be stable.
B. Hydrogen only uses the first energy shell, which holds 2 electrons, not 8.
C. Each hydrogen donates more electrons in their lower energy shells to get to 8 but only to other hydrogen atoms.
D. Each hydrogen has 4 electrons to share for a total of 8 when 2 hydrogens bond.

Answer:

B. Hydrogen only uses the first energy shell, which holds 2 electrons, not 8.

Explanation:

As hydrogen is the first element in the periodic table and has the atomic number it can mix with a variety of elements, including itself, when two atoms of Hydorgen bond the bond they create fills up the first level of energy which only uses 2 electrons in order to be completed, which makes the bond stable by filling up the energy level.
