Hydrogen has a one valence electron, to be stable, it can gain or lose one electron. When hydrogen meets more electronegative element it forms positive charge, but when it meet less electronegative charge it forms negative charge.

see first if all hydrogen fits into the definition of both metal and nonmetal but it is positively charged as it looses it's electron easily with alkaline earth metals and but accecpting an electrons includes high energy exchange
hey thanks but can you please explain me by giving example
