When a carbon atom bonds with four hydrogen atoms, it forms the compound methane. What type of bonding is present in methane?

Covalent bonds

Explanation:

The type of bond present in methane is covalent bonds.

 In covalent bonds, two species share electrons to give an interatomic interaction.

The two species are always non-metals with little to no electronegativity differences between the two of them.

   Carbon is made of 4 valence electrons. It will require an additional 4 electrons to attain stability

  Hydrogen has one electron its outer shell. When each of the four hydrogen shares their single electrons with carbon, the central carbon will attain an octet configuration. The binding hydrogen will have a complete orbital too.

it is a solid
