Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When sulfur reacts with hydrogen, it forms a covalent bond through sharing of electrons. The resulting molecule would be H-S-H, where the sulfur atom shares electrons with two hydrogen atoms, forming a stable molecule. The other choices do not accurately represent the bonding that would occur between sulfur and hydrogen atoms.
