The electrons of carbon and hydrogen are in this molecule of methane. a) charged b) donated c) shared d) transferred

The correct option is (C) Shared

Methane has the formula CH4 and it contains covalent bonds and we know that covalent bonds occur when atoms share outer electrons. Each carbon atoms can form 4 bonds because it lies in group 4 of the periodic table while each hydrogen can form 1 bond since it is in first group. As methane has the chemical formula CH4, we know there must be 4 C-H bond between Carbon and Hydrogen atoms. So option C is the correct answer.
