How Does A Hydrogen Bond Compare To A Covalent Bond?
Answer:
Not absolute answer to this. H bond to what? H exists as H2 and this IS a covalent bond. H+Cl- however in an ionic bond. In organic H is mostly combined near Carbon, etc. In covalent bonds.
Comment: You shurely did bad on your organic chemistry. Check out my answer and go outline Hydrogen Bonds or Hydrogen Bridge on any textbook...or Google it.
Answer: Give it up ! If you have any more doubts check out what types of bonds link together the doble helix DNA chain. Guess what??...Hydrogen Bonds ! These also are responsible for the "secondary structure" of proteins, and for the distinctive properties of H2O (Water...in case you don't find it in any textbook). Anyway, this is adjectives basic Biology and chemistry stuff.
Comment: Just to summarize, the questionaire never specified what H was bonded with, C, N, itself, O, so this put somebody through the mill should have been sent back. In 20 years I own never heard the term Hydrogen Bridge.
Answer: He did named it right as a Hydrogen Bond, which is zilch more than a "Hydrogen Bridge".
Hydrogen Bonds happen when an electronegative atom such as Oxygen or Nitrogen have a Hydrogen attached to them and of course this Hydrogen sort of become electron deficient causing it to attract any unshared pairs of electrons it can find around (such as those in another Oxygen or Nitrogen atom). Thus a "bridge" is created next to the hydrogen in the middle between two electronegative atoms.
The way it compares to a Covalent Bond is that it is much more weaker, but amongst all other intermolecular forces it is the strongest.
Comment: In 20 years I hold never heard the term Hydrogen Bridge. Not from academia, not from PhD Research Scientists at Burroughs/Glaxo Wellcome. Can we move on please.
