Studio4Learning asked: Covalent bonds are very kind and generous. Electrons shared between atoms belong to both-- not to one atom or the other. Learn more about them and their electronegativities, polarities, and affinities.LINCOLN

How are hydrogen bonds different from covalent bonds?

Saturday, February 9th, 2008

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 ...
