Question

Which one of the following statements is true? (a) Fluorine, having seven valence electrons, can't form apolar covalent bond. (b) Hydrogen can't attain a noble element configurationbecause it has only one electron. (c) Florine, having four valence electrons, must form anonpolar covalent bond. (d) Hydrogen can attain a noble gas structure by sharing onlytwo electrons. Which one of the following statements is true?
