- The bond dissociation energy of H-H bond is very high i.e, 436 kJ mol-1 . and thus, it does not react easily under normal conditions.
- However, at high temperature or in the presence of catalysts, hydrogen combines with many metals and nonmetals to form corresponding hydrides and halides respectively.
