1, because it has an atomic number of one, meaning it has 1 proton & 1 electron. It takes 2 electrons to fill the first electron shell, but hydrogen only has 1. So it remains at the 1st shell.

What do electrons have to do with chemical bonds?

Each element has shells of electrons and they are limited to how many can be shared in the outer shell. This lets us know what and how many atoms can combine with it. Hydrogen has the need for one electron in its outer shell. Oxygen has the need for two more electrons in its outer shell. Therefore, 2 hydrogen atoms can combine with oxygen.
