Solution

The correct option is A H2
Hydrogen atom has only 1 electron in its outermost shell. Thus, it combines with another Hydrogen atom by sharing its only one electron forming a covalent bond to form a Hydrogen molecule.
After the combination, there is no unshared electron pair remaining on the molecule.
Hence option A is the correct answer.
