How are hydrogen bonds different from covalent bonds?

what? asked:


Hydrogen bonds are weaker than covalent bonds and form between partially charged atoms or molecules.

The atoms in hydrogen bonds have valence electrons; the atoms in covalent bonds have valence spaces.

The compounds that result from hydrogen bonds contain carbon; those that result from covalent bonds do not.

Covalent bonds are organic; hydrogen bonds are inorganic.
