Explanation:
A covalent bond is defined as the occurrence of a bond due to the sharing of electrons between the combining atoms.
Atomic number of hydrogen atom is 1 and its electronic configuration is
. So, in order to complete its octet it needs to gain or mutually shares one electron.
A covalent bond is generally formed between non-metal atoms.
Thus, we can conclude that hydrogen has only one electron that will be involved in the formation of a covalent bond.
Chemical equation is the symbolic representation of chemical reactions.
Explanation
Chemical reactions are known as the reaction where two or more molecules or compounds react with each other leading to formation of product compounds along with either release or absorption of energy.
The symbolic representation of the processes occurring in a chemical reaction is termed as chemical equation.
The symbolic representation includes the reactants, products, external energy type and quantity of external energy and also about release of energy if occurs.
So the reactants are usually written in the left side of the chemical equation whereas on the right the products are written.
Both the sides are linked by a single headed arrow mark.
Some both the sides are linked by double heated arrow mark indicating the equilibrium chemical reaction.
Answer:
In a chemical reaction, there is a change in the composition of the substances; in a physical change there is a difference in the appearance, smell, or simple display of a sample of matter without a change in composition.
