Solution Steps

Step 1: Understanding the Nature of Hydrogen Bonds

Hydrogen atoms have only one electron and one electron shell. They can form bonds by sharing their single electron with other atoms.

Step 2: Analyzing Double Bonds

A double bond consists of two pairs of shared electrons. For an atom to form a double bond, it must have at least two electrons to share.

Step 3: Applying the Concept to Hydrogen

Since a hydrogen atom has only one electron, it can only form a single bond by sharing this electron. It cannot form a double bond because it lacks the necessary second electron to share.
