Hydrogen has one valence electron while carbon has 4. Since this is a covalent bond, a molecule is formed so all you need do is draw a C for carbon with 4 dashes forming an... 'x' around the carbon. At the end of each carbon write a H for hydrogen
....H
....|
H-C-H
....|
....H
Something like that but all dashes the same length and ignoring the periods..

How many bond can carbon have with hydrogen?
Carbon can form up to four bonds with hydrogen atoms. This is because carbon has four valence electrons and can share these electrons with four hydrogen atoms, resulting in a stable molecule like methane (CH₄). Each bond is a single covalent bond, where one electron from carbon pairs with one electron from hydrogen.
What is the type of bond present between carbon and hydrogen in polyethylene?
In polyethylene, the bond between carbon and hydrogen is a covalent bond. This type of bond occurs when carbon and hydrogen share electrons, allowing them to achieve stable electron configurations. The carbon atoms in polyethylene form single covalent bonds with hydrogen atoms, resulting in a long chain-like structure characteristic of this polymer.
What has only 1 electron and behaves like an alkali?
There is no metal like you describe in your question. Hydrogen is in Group 1, but is not an alkali metal. It is a gas at standard temperature. It does rarely behave like an alkali metal, and it does have only one electron. Hydrogen is in Group 1 primarily because of its electron configuration, which is 1s1. All of the alkali metals also have one electron in their outermost s orbital.
Does hydrogen atoms form exactly 2 bonds when appearing in organic compounds?
No, hydrogen atoms do not form exactly two bonds in organic compounds. Each hydrogen atom typically forms only one bond, as it has one electron and needs one more to achieve a stable electron configuration. In organic compounds, hydrogen commonly bonds with carbon or other elements, but it does not participate in multiple bonds like carbon does.
What is like a alkali metal but has 1 electron?
Hydrogen.

What does hydrogen fluoride electron dot diagram look like?
One bond and 6 unpaired electrons around fluroine.
How many covalent bonds between carbon and hydrogen?
There is only one covalent bond exists between carbon and hydrogen.carbon donates only one electron to hydrogen and even hydrogen has capacity to accept only one electron.
What is the electronic configuration of methane?
The central Carbon atom shared all 4 of it's outer shell (valence) electrons with 4 Hydrogen atoms (1 electron each), the Hydrogen atoms also share their lone valence electron with the carbon, each Carbon-Hydrogen bond (there are 4) is a sharing of 2 electrons one from each atom

Hydrogen.
Why do hydrogen like to make covalent bond?
Each hydrogen atom has one electron on its outer shell. The first electronic shell of any element can only hold 2 electrons, this means that each hydrogen atom needs one electron. 2 hydrogen atoms 'share' their electrons with each other, this can be shown on a dot and cross diagram. Each hydrogen now has 2 electrons on their outer shell and they have become stable. ;)
What is the electron dot diagram for potassium?
. k it looks like that above
Does H and HE have the same valence electron configuration?
Hydrogen and helium have different valence electron configurations. Hydrogen has one valence electron, and helium has two valence electrons. However, hydrogen does typically form covalent bonds in which it shares an electron, and thereby gains an effective electron configuration of two, like helium. Hydrogen also can form the H+ ion which has no electrons.
What is the Lewis Dot Diagram of CHO?
The Lewis Dot Diagram for CHO would show carbon with 4 dots around it (2 bonding pairs and 2 lone pairs), hydrogen with 1 dot, and oxygen with 6 dots (2 bonding pairs and 2 lone pairs). Carbon would be in the center with hydrogen and oxygen attached to it.
