The premise of the question is false: A hydrogen atom does not always "prefer" to lose its electron in chemical reaction. Often the electron is shared to form a covalent bond, and in some instances, the polarity of covalent bond between hydrogen and some other atom has higher average negative charge than positive.

How many electron would fill the outer layer of hydrogen?
Electrons only fill the first layer of hydrogen, giving it only two. The rest of the layers are all 8.
Does hydrogen give up valence electrons eaisly?
Yes, it can stabilize by giving away its electron, the reactions between an acid and a metal can be explained by this behavior.

Transferring or sharing electrons between atoms form?
Covalent bonds are formed when atoms share electrons. Let's take hydrogen for example. To be the most "happy" atoms want their outermost orbital full of electrons. Hydrogen has only one electron in its 1s orbital, but the 1s orbital can hold two electrons. Hydrogen wants two electrons to be "happy" so it will do what it takes to get them. If a hydrogen atom bumps into another hydrogen atom they can both become "happy" as each atom will share its electron with the other atom, giving each a full outermost orbital with the help of the other atom's electron. This is what creates the bond in covalent bond as the hydrogen atoms are "happier" together with a full orbital than they would be with a half-full orbital apart.
