Why can't hydrogen have more than 1 covalent bond? It is not electronegative enough It only forms +1 cations It only has 1 valence shell orbital Its larger than smallest atom The force of attraction holding ions together in a lattice will decrease when. The cation charge is larger and the cation radius is smaller The anion charge is smaller and the anion radius size is larger The electrons are in a triple bond The atoms use molecular orbitals instead of atomic orbitals How many valance electrons are on the Se atom? 4 6 16 34
