actually the bond energy of dihydrogen is very strong because of which when atomic hydrogen reacts and gives dihydrogen with a good amount of heat energy. so in hydrogen torch using electric arc is used to break bond between hydrogen atoms in dihydrogen, which when combine again near metal which is to be weld release a good amount of het sufficient to melt the metalfor welding. In hydrogen torch hydrogen do not reacts with oxygen but this hydrogen’s reaction with oxygen is utilised in hydrogen-oxygen uel cell in rockets.but in weld bond between two hydrogen breaks and forms again giving a good amount of heat sufficient for welding
