A

Losing an electron

B

Gaining an electron

C

Sharing an electron

D

Losing, gaining or sharing electron

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Hydrogen can lose one electron `(e.g. HF)`. It can gain one electron `(e.g. NaH)`, hydrogen can also share one electron `(e.g. H-H)`.
