Question

Molecule of hydrogen has a single covalent bond while molecule of oxygen has a double covalent bond give reason​

Answer 1

Hydrogen atoms form only one covalent bond because they have only one valence electron to pair.

On the other hand, oxygen needs two electrons to complete its octet. Since each atom in an oxygen molecule shares two electrons with its partner, we get a covalent double bond.
