Hydrogen: Hydrogen always forms one bond and so has a duet. The valence orbitals of hydrogen (and helium) have a principle quantum number of 1, and so there is only one orbital available, the 1s. Since each orbital can contain up to two electrons (of opposite spin), hydrogen can have 2 electrons in its Lewis Dot Structure.
