    Hydrogen has one electron in its outermost shell, while fluorine has seven electron in its outermost shell, hence both hydrogen and fluorine needs a single electron to complete its outermost shell.

    That's why there is a single bond between hydrogen and fluorine.

    Hence both hydrogen and fluorine share one electron with each other, so option "A" is correct.
