Hydrogen resembles alkali metal as it has one valence electron as alkali metal and it resembles halogens as it is a non- metal
) Hydrogen can form both covalent and ionic compounds. But alkali metals only form ionic compounds.
3) Hydrogen cannot lose its valence electron
it is highly electropositive where as halogen are electronegative
